The thing is, some kid (??) doesn't know what he has and probably flogged it at the nearest pub for $100. (See header "Thugs are stupid")There is no way I could accept something stolen. Especially knowing (hoping) that if it ever needs repairs, the numbers will show up. BTW. The numbers are: M6 Black body... #1915436 Black Summicron 35.. #3590645 just in case anyone is offered or sees them. Rob
