Other sellers have the same item for £15!
I have the slightly longer one, it's well made but it isn't worth £400...

I'm slowly standardising on these mounts as my Red Snapper ball head has one and the QR plates seem to be widely available in a variety of lengths, so you can shift the camera forward or back on the head to get the balance right.

A little while ago, Boots were doing 36 exp slide film @ £7.99 with a 3 for offer as well.
If you go for that, remember that you have to send it from a post office as a "small package" with postage about £1.50 instead of just sticking a first class stamp on the return envelope. I sent a film last year whith about a 10 day turn-around.
Regards
I suspect the ten day turn-around is due to there being only one lab left processing the stuff. They've probably decided that this is enough to meet demand.

There was something wrong with the Pentax K2? I think you could
set the exposure compensation to =/- 2 stops and then forget about
it. I think they put a reminder (orange popup) in the K2DMD ?

I have a Hama-branded lens pen and would recommend it as the first thing anyone should buy after their camera. Best device ever for cleaning fingerprints and greasy marks, there's a brush in the other end to sweep away any loose particles so they don't scratch the glass when you use the pad end.
