Dear George I do not appreciate your remarks or reference. If you read my
remarks I state , I would place it on ebay and probably get $200.00 for it ,
if I were the person who dropped it in the ocean. If you use common since.
Where can you find an OM-4Ti for $200.00 in good working order. Obviously
an OM4Ti that brings or brought in $200.00 max would have something wrong
with it. Who know's perhaps he could $400.00 for a parts camera I do not
know. When I reply to the group questions , I reply in a way that everyone
is dealing in good faith and you should disclose what ever is wrong with an
item. I would think everyone would think this way and it is common sense.
Obiviously you don't and think the worst case scenario.
It would make no sense to have the camera gutted and replaced with entirely
new parts for the cost of a good used one , but hey , someone may prefer to
do that. If you have noticed on ebay , lot's and lot's of Olympus camera's
sell for AS IS or parts.
As far as mental notes , I will happily compare my history with yours
anyday. My email address is dolphans1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and not some hidden
name like many others use on ebay. Also my name is Sam Morales , not some
phonie intial at the end.
We either have a comedian in George S. or class Act Jerk. Let the record
and witnesses make their own judgement !!!!
Samuel Morales ......
