There are lots of 50/1.8s and the like, too.  The prices on OM-2/2n
bodies has come down a lot in the last two years. The numbers of Oly
stuff being offered seem down as well, even allowing for Alex and a
couple of other sellers.  Also noted a dearth of Tamron 300/2.8, which
was quite common a year or so ago (luckily when I was looking for one). 

Prices of Oly exotica, however, don't seem to be falling (sigh).

Is it my imagination or are there fewer of the more expensive Zuikos
and OMs on the market?  There seem to be plenty of OM 1 and OM 10
bodies floating around.  The 50mm f3.5, 75-150mm and silver nosed 24mm
f2.8  seem to have a fair amount of company on eBay, however the f2s and
the longer  Zuiko zooms seem 
to be is shorter supply.  Are folks holding  back?   Perhaps a
redistribution 
has occurred and all who have them  are happy and using them.  That
would be nice.  Some of the more  interesting items I've seen from the
standpoint of a buyer, seller and user is  a nice (but not pristine) OM
4 (old circuit) sell for $299, a Tokina  AT-X 80-200mm f2.8 not drawing
much attention, although it is still out  there and a kind of ratty
looking OM 4T list at BIN of $170 
including  postage.  The market is interesting.  <[8^)  Bill Barber
