The newest price list that I can find right now is the Aug 1990 list and it
shows the OM-4T with a list price of $1200 and dealer net of $665 ($610 for
3 or more). The OM-4T Back was $1250 list, $675/$620 dealer net. An
interesting comparision is the June 1974 price of the OM-1. It had a list
price of $330 with a dealer net of $215 ($192 for 12 or more). It seems
profit margins for dealers went up significantly as the system matured.
