In their lens manuals Kiron say that dry tissue will scratch
the lens coatings and it should always be used moistened with
lens cleaner.
For a final wipe Selvit cloths are about the best for removing
bits left behind by microfibre cloths etc. I find them too soft
to actually clean off anything worse than finger prints.
Samsung supply a very good soft blue cloth with their monitors.
Persil washing powder is very good. I find I have two children
and it brings them up lovely and clean
the lens coatings and it should always be used moistened with
lens cleaner.

The 250-600 sale was a bit of an oddity. It wasn't originally a sale and was later moved to Classifieds whilst we were still discussing photos about it etc. so it would never have looked like a normal Classified list. It was then moved back to the original section. No point in taking it any further because of this.
Apart from being top quality from 6x6 negatives I'm not that impressed
with them. The viewpoint is unusual, the Rollei was probably held at
waist level. Some shots may have been intended for cropping. I suppose
it's still early days and proper B&W prints from the negatives may
be a lot better. Some of the subjects are more interesting
than the photos.
Another very good woman photographer who did a lot of street
photography but was never really considered an exceptional
photographer was Gina Lollobrigida, she was also a very
good artist and sculptor.
I bought her 1973 book "Italia Mia" some nice shots in it.

There are probably a lot of daft offers sent and I don't think
the person making the offer will want to make a post as well
confirming that he/she has sent in a daft offer.... nor will the
seller.
I can't see how it will work other than the way it is now with
no rules? obviously if a buyer is paying full price he will put
up a post saying that he is buying the item or the seller will
confirm that the item is sold subject to payment being received.
