But... but... it's in a slab! What more documentation do you need? :rolleyes:
You're fighting a losing battle -- too many degrees of freedom between the loupe's position, the phone's position, and focus. I'm surprised you...
Well, it is a set of three. I have no idea what such things go for. When in doubt, why not list at a sky-high price and entertain offers?

I thought "that ship has sailed" when I first looked at the cartoon, but I think its actual point is "missed the boat"...
