I guess I'd say conservative in that an item they might list as bargain
would probably be on eyebuy listed as 'minty'.  I've bought a couple bargain
items from them, and optically/mechanically they were like new.  Possibly
some burnish marks on the barrel or aperture ring, but that's about it.  If
they have it listed as excellent, it is most likely indistinguishable from
brand new.  

My opinion, mind you.

B&H is pretty close behind them in this regard, too.  I've had very similar
experiences there as well.

Coul you explain better the expresion "conservative graders" please?
Would an Excelent item be like an Excelent Plus or Like New Minus???

I was willing to pay up to 200 for an exceptional plain OM2, but $253 seems
a little expensive for their Excelent description.
