Just picked up a Black OM1 to compliment my chrome one, and I only paid £25 :D

I'm grinning like a Cheshire cat, always wanted a black OM1.

Congrats ... they are truly beautiful. I'm also currently waiting for a black OM-1 with winder that I bought on eBay a week ago ... should be here any day now! :)

Cool! I think of mine as my $30 brassy black MP :)

Even good OM's are very inexpensive these days.

Very sensible to stock up on lenses and bodies, within moderation.

I'm on that list of folks who would happily use a black OM-1.. i gave my OM-2 & 28/3.5 rig to my mom for her birthday, and now have a nice 50/1.4 sitting here with nothing to do.. and i certainly miss the compact-ness of the OM.

Those OM1's are classy looking SLRs. I only have a chrome one... for now :)

Where did you pick it up fantastic price, I've been looking for one for ages, but they go for ~£75-90

Just being in the right place at the right time, a colleague gave me the nod, knowing I was into OM kit. I made a cheekier offer at first but had to rise to £25 :D
