[OM] Midsummer Dream Sale

Dear Zuiks/Zuikettes:

This year, an unusually busy schedule has prevented me from holding my
now legendary(!) :-) 4-th of July and Bastille Day OM gear sales.

However, I did not neglect my duties, and have been turning every stone
(literally!) in my continuing quest to satisfy my Fellow Zuiks' thirst
(uhm..., lust??) for the choiciest, most delectable, and often scarce
morcels of OM/Zuiko "eye candy". :-)

I am glad to report that I hit pay dirt, and this summer's "bountiful
crop" is presented below.  Pls note that these items are sold on FCFS
basis, and the prices exclude shipping/insurance.

Most items are used, but in EXC++ to MINT- condition unless otherwise
noted, and come with OEM front/back lens caps.  I'll be happy to give
more details as necessary.

Although many of our list members have dealt with me in the past, and
will attest to the high quality of the OM/Zuiko toys that I offer to
this forum, pls note that I do provide a reasonable inspection period
on most of the items bought from me.

Moreover, I am now equipped with a sophisticated digicam (Olympus, of
course!), and so if a prospective buyer likes to watch :-), I'll be
happy to forward him/her a JPG pict of their "object of desire". :-)

Ok, here is this summer's list.  Enjoy!!
