Steve,
I saw the same model lens, OM mount, in a North Richland Hills pawnshop
about a month ago. They wanted $99.95 and wouldn't bargain. It had a
driver's license number engraved on, of all places, the mounting
surface. I thought 100 bucks was too much. All the Vivitar Series 1
lenses were supposed to be good glass.
And, there must be a pawnshop price guide with a really inflated view of
the OM-10 since they all have them badly overpriced. I wouldn't pay
more than $75 for one in a pawnshop unless it came with a 50/1.4.
