This is a black body with the recorderback 4. Their bargain-condition price of
$465. The one from Penn was champagne in good cosmetic condition. No dents,
dings. Ugly turn mark on the bottom plate from a tripod. Some wear marks on the
corners and the film tab holder. That one was $479, but I got them down to
$430.
Right now, I can't afford a cosmetically perfect body, so as long as it works
well and feels smooth, I'll be happy. It will be a regular user.

Mind telling us how much it cost to buy your OM 4T from KEH? What quality
ranking was it? Mint etc...

I reported sometime earlier that I had purchased a champagne OM-4T from
Penn Camera in Laurel MD. I used it for a short while, but soon realized that
the lens sensing nib on the collar of the mount was too close to tolerance and
going spastic. Penn has a 2 week return policy and a 90 day warrantee. These
were welcome features in the sale. I returned it on the 11th day, explaining
the problem. I got a full refund without question. There is no doubt that I'd
feel secure in purchasing from them again. I have one coming from KEH tomorrow.
Hopefully this will be a keeper.
