It is a good deal. If it were an OM it would be on its way to my house.

Definitely. I'm thinking my next purchase will be some form of OM18.

A 000 or OM would have probably made me pull the trigger too. Thanks for posting OP!!

If my 517 sells today, I will buy it in a heartbeat. If not, then it wasn't meant to be....

I'm seriously thinking about it. Only problem is I've had my 517 for sale for months now and I just don't think it is going to sell. I don't really understand it, but maybe the 517s just aren't selling well?

Why bother buying another D-18 if you already had one and sold it ?

I've been through two myself, one Sitka one Adi. I'm done with D-18s.
