Jan,
I saw a 24mm shift last Friday in a store in Columbus, OH.  I also saw some 
other OM stuff I another store, also in Columbus:
OM 35 2.0  diaphragm very rough, was being sent out for repair
OM 300 4.5 looked OK $225
Tokina 80-200 2.8 with fungus on inner element near front $360
OM-4 looked at little rough, battery check light didn't work, but sounded, 
all else looked functional (shutter speed, etc.
Tamron Sp teleconvertor $65
OM Motor 1 with 18v grip $99
OM winder 1 $60
OM 25mm extension tube $25
I would be happy to go back and check on anything you or others would like 
evaluated.  I pass through there all the time.
Store wit 24 shift is Midwest Photo Exchange, other store is Columbus 
Camera Group.
Don't take any of list prices at face value.  I know for a fact that 
Columbus Camera Group uses these prices as starters.  I walked out with an 
adapter I wanted for $25 rather than the $39 asking price.
At Midwest Photo, I bought a T32 for $30 because they wondered if it would 
work, it does, then sold me the wide ND filter kit for $5 to go with it.
Let me know if you're interested in anything, I'm going to Columbus 
Thursday, through Columbus on the 10th and back again on the 16th.
ALSO, please let me know if this reply still has garbage!  If it doesn't, 
I've found the way to clean it up.

C'mon, I know someone out there got one of these for a particular project,
then didn't use it any more! So you took the photo of the building, then
set it on the shelf -- wouldn't you just as soon swap it for something you
can use?

I've got an OM-3Ti, like new, in original box, with all original materials,
including manual and blank warranty card. I'd like to trade even for a
Zuiko 24mm/f3.5 shift in similar condition, plus or minus cash, depending
on condition of the 24/3.5. I'll kick in up to $180 (the difference in B&H
new prices between the two) if it is also LNIB with all paper and 
packaging,

So get that heavy hunk of metal and glass off your shelf where it sits, and
turn it into something you'll use daily!

Why? I got the OM-3Ti as part of a larger system. It is so perfect, I'm
afraid to use it -- my 4T bodies do the job, and I don't constantly fear
banging them on something. I'm about to do some serious architectural
photography, and will end up buying the shift anyway. Seemed like a win-win
for me and someone else out there!

(Please, no bottom-feeders. I have a standing offer of $1k for the 3Ti that
I'm going to take in a couple weeks if I can't work a trade.)
