I've lost two of my originals now. Replaced them with these:

Decided, at that price, i wouldn't get too upset losing those in the future. And they still look good, plus are much nicer to use than the Pentax original.

Ahoy!

I have a selection of brand new sealed unbranded generic front centre pinch caps and a new/sealed rear M42 screw-mount cap:

1x 49mm
4x 58mm
1x 67mm
1x 77mm
1x M42 rear cap

These are on evilBay, Amazon (UK), Gumtree, Preloved and other sites.

I've been listing them for £2.89 delivered (average) but for more on sites where commissions are charged, for example evilBay now charge a 10% fee on postage/shipping as of 5th September 2013 (rip-off merchants) in addition to their standard 10% final value fee and 3.4% + 20 PayPal fees!

The image is the pattern type for all sizes, and they have a retaining cord so you can secure them to the lens.
