I wonder, is that diagnosis confirmed by his also having paid:
USD661 for a NIB OM1 MD (yes, NIB, not LNIB) #2919646193
USD202 for a similar condition OM10 (yes, two digits there) #2919646729?
Then again, he only bid USD322 for the Zuiko 100/2.8 #2914946823 that
eventually went to the renowned jonequinn for USD722.
Nuts or not, it's catching (but we all knew that, surely)

Even if "zuiko7" is a genuine buyer, he's NUTS for paying $456.00 for a NIB
100/2.8.
