Though you did not mention repair shop names, what's YOUR name?

> Hi.
>
> Just wanted to share the following info about having your OM camera CLA'd
> here in the states. I'm not going to name names.
>
> I have now had two OM-4T cameras CLA'd (general tune-up) in the last year
> and a half. One went to the East coast, the other to the South. The
> Eastbound camera was repaired and returned to me within one month of the
> time it arrived at the facility. Nothing unusual was found when doing the
> repair. It was routine. The Southbound camera was repaired just as
> routinely, but it wasn't actually repaired until seven weeks had gone by
> from the time in arrived at the facility. Furthermore, there were an
> additional three weeks before the repaired camera was finally returned to
> me.
>
> Total time without my camera:
>
> Eastbound: Five weeks
>
> Southbound: Ten weeks
>
> Quality of work done: Identical
>
> Expense: Eastbound was 15% more expensive
>
> Both were friendly on the phone.
>
> My mission here is not so much to advise as simply to inform. This info
> would have been very useful to me had someone else shared it late last
year.

> FYI
