go to any large camera store that carries used equipment and you can find alot of bargains on old 35mm stuff. Everyone is dumping their film cameras (poor choice) for digitals, and trading in their old gear. The camera stores will hang onto it for a bit, but are also very eager to get it moved back out of the store.

I still use the OM-1 alot due to it's durability and some of the features that i find very useful.
