Multiple listing (or two-timing, or double dipping -- pick your own
terminology :-)) is unethical, but, sadly, is not uncommon on the net.
This should serve as a reminder that the cheapest quoted price is not
necessarily the best deal.
This is the place where I would normally tout my own horn, and/or
shamelessly plug other Zuiks who occasionally sell OM toys on the OLY
list -- in a hassle-free manner, and at fair/"below market" prices.
But, this time I won't bore you with such trivia ... :-)
