Well folks,
Since I have not heard a definitive ruling on auctions that close
without bids. I have decided to make my own ruling: "I Am King!!!!
Hahahahahahahaha", no that's not it. 
Rule Two states: "The closest guess (either higher or lower) to the
actual closing price (whether or not the reserve is met) wins". I will
interpret that to include "auctions closing without any bids".

So with that, the winner of the "Guess the Closing Price" of the Zuiko
500/8 cat lens is.....<drum rolls>
<drum rolls....................................................>
<more drum rolls...............................................>
<still more drum rolls.........................................>
<and yet more drum rolls.......................................>
<almost done with the drum rolls...............................>
<and still the drum rolls on...................................>
finally <crashing cymbals>

Tom Scales with a bid of $408.00 (USD)!!!
Next closest guess was $410.00 (USD) by Chris O'Neil.

Congratulations Tom. Select your choice of film.
And per the rules you will MC the next "Guess the Closing Price"
contest.
