Thanks, I guess with Olympus OM-1's selling for 50-75 dollars it makes more
sense buying another one than investing the money in repairing one - as I
doubt with shipping, taxes, labour and parts I would be looking at 100+
dollars for the repair cost.

Too bad unjamming it isn't something I could do on my own.
