I have considered the same, but eventually came to the conclusion that 
selling my old OM bodies was not worth it.  I  have had the OM-1 since 1979 
and the OM-2 since 1982.  They are a part of my life, and I would certainly 
miss them if they got stolen - even though I hardly use them any more. 
Besides, you don't really get any money for them, at least not what I would 
consider fair.  So mine are going to stay with me.  I have suggested 
displaying them in our living room, I can't think of any better decoration, 
but the better half is a bit reluctant at the moment.
