<<The OM-1 was marked at $159, while the OM-1n was $239. I had a quick
look at the OM-1, and after the clerk replaced the battery, the meter seemed
to work fine. It appeared very clean, with no marks, and the insides and
lens
mount showed evidence of fairly light use. >>

Either one should be a good camera after it is CLA'd.  It is the only way I
know of to
be sure all is well.  New seals and a battery conversion are probably
needed.
I would use this as a negotiation tool when looking to buy a used camera.
This could be another $159 for the OM1.  Check with your favorite OLY
repairman.
Just my 2 cents.
