BIN can have enormous fangs on e-bay since one bid can
end it rather than just hoping the item goes unnoticed
or something. I think I am the BIN lord and master
though. Got an EX condition 24 shift and OM-1 for $325
8-). Sold both of them for mucho profit. I've also
seen an OM-4t with 50mm 3.5 macro go for $250 BIN. BIN
are either way too high, or a total bargain. Although
fair prices are also possible, got a black 4t in EX
condition alone for $500, a good deal, but not a
megafang.
