Jessops have always been quite cheap for a number of different OMs.
I bought a mint 35-70/3.5-4.5 for £60 sterling in 1997.  I was going
to buy a 500 mirror a few months ago, but they wanted £500 for one of
indifferent parentage.

I am thinking of selling my near-pristine OM4Ti on eBay with a
reserve of £480.  Boxed and in wonderful condition but for a tiny bit
of brassing on one corner - irritatingly I must have caused it in the
last few weeks :<(.

Body prices seem to be in a  state of change in the UK at the moment. I just
picked up a nice user 4Ti for 385GBP with 1 year guarantee, Just 6 months
ago I would have expected to pay 500+. I don't know yet if I got lucky, or
if prices are going to fall, but I'm certainly keeping an eye on it. It my
just be a symptom of Jessops losing interest in OM trading, but they're big
enough to take the local market with them in the short term.
