A 50/1.2 described as in 'perfect condition' was sold recently on UK eBay
for 114GBP (USD208) - it looked OK in the photo. I probably should have
bid, bit I hardly use my two 50/1.4 these days...

Skip,
I don't agree with your 200. More like your 300 not including OM hood
and filter.
Why ? Because new is not what you find as mint. In general, I have only
made few good experiences with buying used equipment - often it is
similar to buying at Fry's: you need to go back three times until it
works ... I guess I'm a perfectionist and emotional about my equipment
... which is why I use Zuiko's in the first place ;-)
Cheers,
Roland.
