I asked the seller a few questions (through the ebay system, not his special
little window), and put in a really low bid.

Interesting that he has 600+ items up for auction and they all have
duplicates except for the 24/3.5 as far as I could see.

I'm sure he'll be closed down when I get up in the morning and take another
look.
