Note the following ad seen on ebay here in Aus...

The simplest way to get a better result when taking close-up photos is to attach this brand new Macro Extension Tube Ring to your lens on your Pentax EOS DSLR camera body.....


......SPECIFICATIONS

* Compatible with all Pentax EOS DSLR models
* 1 male and 1 female adapter included
* 3 extension tubes allowing for 8 different range combinations
* Brand new, boxed and un-use



Very, very sad.

Just thought you'd find it amusing.

Also, unless there's something special somewhere, if you have three different lengths of tube, youi should have a range of 9 combinations.

Tube combinations:

1, 2, 3, 1+2, 1+3, 2+3, 1+2+3 = 7 different combinations, 8 if you count no tubes at all (but that's silly).

What am I missing ? ? ?

Nope,

you're right Pete..

Sunday mornings aren't the best time to get anything sensible out of me.
