This reminds me of a similar job-lot of some 50000 OM spare parts listed by
a Canadian seller on the auction site six years back, which elicited similar
calls for action. In that case the book-price for the whole lot was about
USD90000, but close analysis of the parts list (which in that case was
available) revealed, if I remember correctly, a surfeit of parts which are
not in short supply at all such as screws, with everything buried in all
manner of dross, so that even if there were any gems, it would have been the
work of a lifetime to find them. There is a reason for the parts being
still available!
http://lists.tako.de/Olympus-OM/2003-03/msg00714.html is a taste of the
conclusion then.

Damn - and it's all the way out in Australia.
John H., surely you are interested to try to get your hands on this stuff??
I am sure we could arrange something with one of the Australian list
members, for the collective good?
