Last week I ordered an "IR Wireless Remote Control for Olympus E-420 E-520 E-3" for the price of US $8.49 - - - as well as a Battery for Olympus E-30/E-3/E-520/E-510 BLM1 BLM-1 for the price of US $14.99. FREE shipping to Canada at that. I got the notice the next morning that these products had been shipped to me. This is the company I used: http://stores.shop.ebay.com/John-Camera-Store__W0QQ_armrsZ1 (http://stores.shop.ebay.com/John-Camera-Store__W0QQ_armrsZ1)
I have never had a wireless RC for my camera and will likely not use it much, but can't go wrong to have one at that price. I have several brand name BLM1 batteries for my cameras, but can never have enough during the course of a long shooting day. I also have 3 third party Optex batteries that have served me well. The price of the Olympus BLM1 battery is $89.95 CDN, the Optex is $49.95 CDN (I just purchased another 2 Optex, last week) - I'm really curious to see what $14.95 US (about $18.00 CDN) will give me.
Crazy delivery time - - - I ordered battery, camera remote, free pouch (for ordering 2 items) from China on July 2'nd - got it today July 9'th. I'm impressed.
