=================
Olympus guy is in favor of the 28-210mm Vivitar and sells it for $175 he
raves about this lens and offers a money back guarantee. I recently asked if
=================

All reputable mail-order dealers offer a money-back guarantee.  B&H sells
this lens for $149, though they will charge a higher shipping & handling
charge.  But I wouldn't recommend it.  It doesn't really reach 210mm,
and the optical quality at the long end of the zoom range is poor.  It
also does not control flare very well, and exhibits substantial distortion
at the wide end.
