Further to my mention of Tamron prices, another 300mm f2.8 (LD, non-IF) has
come up for sale on UK eBay, including the very rare (and expensive)
Adaptall-2 Canon EOS mount. Starting price is 350GBP.
This lens is the original model made from 1984-85, with a hard round
leather lens case. As it did not have internal focussing, I presume that
there was no equivalent AF model. It is also white, unlike the later black
models.

I could also mention that some prices are dropping on UK eBay. a Tamron
300mm f2.8 with case and 1.4x converter etc. was sold last week for 330GBP
(550USD). I noticed that the list price in the US is currently 4,000USD.

Another tendency that I have noticed on UK eBay is that prices for OM-1's
and -1n's seem to be climbing relative to OM-2 and -2n's; an OM-1n will
usually sell for more than an OM-2n for instance.

Tell me about it. I've done over 70 auctions in the last 5 weeks. T32 for
$130+. 28/2 for $179. OM-10 for $25.
Mostly people are getting deals.
