HU: OLY 35 SP for $50

[ray_g]

Don't know the seller, but a very good price for what he is offering. I'd grab it if I didn't already have an SP (or two 😉 )

That is an amazing price, these usually go for at least $125 and up.

 

[back alley]

where does it say $50?

On the same site, a Silver Voigtlander 75 mm Color-Heliar for $175(!) I cannot believe how inexpensively this lens can had.

How many cameras do we need?

Never enough SPs... that said, prices on evilBay for SPs have moderated recently. I have seen good ones go for $65-80, occasionally more for EX+ w/ good case, etc. But yeah, this is a good price. If it were black ...

 

[flashover]

46 that's how many

 

[Flyfisher Tom]

How much are the black ones going for relative to silver?

I will have to own up and confess that I snagged the camera last night! Is there really a finite number of cameras to be owned?

I promise once I get organized to sell off my Oly collection I'll let you know...I would had done it already but moving makes you keep stuff packed in boxes you never really know where they are..

But before packing, the latest olympus camera count was:

3 Black Olympus 35SP (-1 now)
2 Chrome Olympus 35SP
2 Chrome Olympus 35SPn
1 Olympus 35UC
3 Olympus Trip 35 (black, chrome)
2 Olympus 35 DC
1 Olympus 35 ECR
1 Olympus 35 EC
1 Olympus 35 RC
2 Olympus EC2
2 Olympus 35 LE
2 Olympus 35 LC
1 Olympus 35 ED

* Some of the above in black and/or chrome bodies.

One day I'll sort it out and spam the classifieds section.

So, just a heads up on my recent purchase. It turns out that the exquisite photo of the Olympus-35 SP in her ad on photo.net was a rip-off of an EBAY item photo that sold on 31 July 06 (140012995515). If only the one that I received was as perfect as the one pictured. The one I received was nearly perfect, except for the fact that it has taken a major impact in the hotshoe area. The camera appears ok, except for the major depression in the area of the hotshoe. I am hoping to remove the top and re-align things.

The amusing part is that her response to my discovering the facts about the photo was that since she did not own a computer, cell phone, digital camera or even cable tv, her approach was ok. After admonishing her to at least add a disclaimer in the future, she has apparently withdrawn completely from photo.net. All trace of her has been deleted (except for search history).

Anyone had experience in removing the top? Do I need to remove the ASA dial or just the rewind and film advance?

thanks!
