They go for less than £250, mine was £235 inc postage.
Have to say at that price am quite impressed.

I use quite a few of the 'turkey' from 7DayShop and I have nothing but praise for them.

82mm crystal optics circular polariser;

Optically perfect, although there is slight paint loss on the side.
Can be seen in this photo;

The cpl comes in a hard plastic round case, a bit tatty, the Hoya is uncased.
Given the costs of these I think £60 for the 2 including postage is fair?
Paypal gifted or Bank Transfer.

Bought these on a whim some time ago.
The only “fault” I can find is a slight loss of paint on the 2nd m on the middle tube.
You can see this on the 2nd image;




Getting very rare, since Kenko stopped making them.
Note; despite the name they will not autofocus, all exposure modes however are catered for,
And you have full aperture control.
Think £70 inc postage is fair?
Bank transfer or Paypal gifted.

but I think #2 & #3 have suffered a bit having to shoot through whatever barrier was between you and the cats
I was not expecting much from this lens, it has a fair few bad remarks on the web, but the af was so much faster than any of my Pentax lenses I was quite surprised.
I think the camel shot also shows it can be a pretty decent performer optically.
