I think mine was $1600 or so plus duties, so $1850?

Aaarg! One that I had my eye on just sold - it had been updated to reflect included duties ($300) and sold almost immediately. It was odd though, because it had a correct Olympic serial number BUT the focus was in FEET not meters - pretty sure that was NOT a thing? since they were all made for the Japanese

That one was cheap!
And in feet! Only about 10% are in feet.
Bargain hunting does work.

I have regret...should have just bought it.
A couple of weeks ago I messaged the seller and he said I should just wait until there was more clarity on fees...then boom, gone -with an adjusted for tariffs prices - not all that cheap (+300) but it was EXACTLY what I was looking for. Seems like 2 or 3 other decent ones that check the boxes - but some are TOO nice- they look like new!

Sorry I’ve been keeping quiet. I bought this exact camera. I’ve also been watching the other listings but most of them look unused and priced much higher. I was holding off because I couldn’t get a good idea on pricing.

The seller was also very responsive and answered all my questions. I’m based in Asia so I don’t get charged for tariifs.

I’ll report when I have the camera. Really hoping it’s a keeper.

No need to be sorry! Excited for you! Hope it is a good one - I like that they posted a video using all the basic functions. I will find one eventually! Make sure to let us know how you like it.
