Well, I have no other details on this particular outfit, but know of
this particular outlet, namely, Silvio's. :-) Silvio's is a large
camera store dealing in both new and used photo gear, including many
pro-level items (MF, LF, lab equipment, etc.) They always have multi-
page ads in the Sh*tterb*g.
A well-financed outlet, they can afford to buy estates, large collections,
smaller stores that go out of business, etc. Their present-time large
inventory probably represents such a recent buyout(s). They know what
they're doing, and seem to have respect for OM gear, so don't expect
bargains.
