...which is b***s*** -- except for their "internet presence", there is NOT
an Olympus retail presence in all 50 states.  Just ask them for a list of
their offices in all 50 states.  But be careful -- you might find your email
address banned from purchasing/bidding from them (see below).

As a registered retail establishment in Texas, I am supposed to be exempt
from state sales tax upon declaration that the purchase is intended for
resale, which is something I used to do with frequency, especially when
faced with a beyond repair camera.  In fact, my signed "Limited Sales Tax
Number/Declaration of Resale" certificate is on file with them already, as a
purchaser of repair parts and equipment for resale.  When I asked them why I
had to include sales tax, I was told I could either remit the tax or have my
email address henceforth banned from bidding on or purchasing any of their
products!
