Yeah... I meant I'd let people know if I got that
$100 as the price to beat
- oh well -
anyway -- I'll keep the rest off the list - and in
future put it differently

line of camera stuff.

The reason I like ebay, actually, is that I've
always worried about
charging people too much (probably why I'm poor!)
for something, my
anti-corporate world mind-set - so if I get a lot
of money for something
I've found for a tiny amount I don't feel guilty.
