Dear David.
What has happened?
It was only a few days ago (posted 25 Aug 1999 ?) that I found your ad
in www.loot.com:
> Olympus Zuiko, 350mm / f2.8 telephoto lens, original aluminium case,
> amazing lens, £1,900. 01768 774324 or email: keswick@xxxxxxxxxxx
> South, North West, East Midlands, Web edition - 6 days old
and now in uk.adverts.other I read:
>'From: "David" <keswick@xxxxxxxxxxx>
>Newsgroups: uk.adverts.other
>
>My Olympus Zuiko 350mm/f2.8 lens was stolen last week. This is a large and
>heavy telephoto lens in an aluminium case. It is a VERY rare lens, more so
>because it is completely black - most of these lenses were made in a cream
>colour. Very few of these professional lenses were made in this colour and I
>have never seen or heard of another in the UK.

>I would be grateful for any help anyone could give me in finding this lens
>and will be happy to offer £100 cash to anyone who can give me any
>information which leads to its return. If you see such a lens advertised for

>Many thanks, David'
I feel terribly sorry for you. I own the same rare black lens as
yours, so I know what loss it is.
I would also like to know what happened.
Have you been conned by a potential buyer or what?
Please let me have the serial number (or part of it) - just in case...
BW, Frank.
