This is not the auction to which I was making reference. However, I did come
across this one last night and, mostly out of avaracious curiosity, took at
look at the "superb" 21/2 Zuiko, since I have one and like to see them sell for
big bucks. I was a bit put off by the fact everything he is selling is
"superb" and by his conditions of sale.
The "double secret" auction I referred to is not for lenses. It is for a body,
probably the rarest of the OM bodies, excepting possibly only the M-1. I'm not
saying another word, and I take back what I said about not bidding. I may. Or
I may not. I've got more e-Snipe points than I have sense. :-)
