Walt, I am afraid that removing the inspection stickers completely destroyed the value of your OM4Ti. You can send the worthless thing to me if you like.This brings up another subject dear to my heart. Am I the only one who peels those little gold, football-shaped (American football) "Passed" stickers off as soon as I take whatever it is out of the box? A few months ago I bought an OM-1n. The camera looked nearly new, and that stupid little sticker looked even newer, still stuck to the side of the pentaprism. It had to havebeen there -- what? -- a quarter century? It's not there now. When I bought my OM-4Ti last year, brand new from B&H, the stickercame off before the batteries went in. It may just be a personal thing, but those stickers to me are like leaving the price tag on stuff. End of rant. I do keep boxes, though, and every scrap of paper with writing on it. Does "anal retentive" have a hyphen?
