LOL!! Actually, the chap offering it was in the process of closing
down his business - another casualty of the 'digital revolution' - and
dropping the price w/o being asked. Then, he dug up a matte screen
and offered me an even lower price. I was comparing it with an OM-G
offered by the vendor at the next table. That camera has a LumiMicron
screen and even though I preferred the OM2n the VF issue confused me
so I left both. Glad I did because I ended up with a very nice OM-4T.
But I'll certainly keep your suggested strategy in mind for the next
opportunity . . . ;o)
