Looks like he tried flipping it on eBay but his plans didn't quite work out:

He got $548US the first time, $448US the second time. I wonder if he'll
list it again.

It's an interesting model just for the fact that it's the first 35mm film
camera that Olympus produced. They do show up occassionally and prices
can very wildly. About $500US is average.
