    Thankyou for that but checking the postal cost of over £10 for a piece of plastic that costs £4 is something I just can't get my head round, not just in this case but many small items cost triple there prices in postage costs from the States we are like many suppliers left out on a limb USA even have a dedicate shop https://yongnuousa.net/ thankyou for the reply, Russ.

    I'm actually surprised that they now ship spare parts. The "dirty little secret" with all the the Chinese manufacturers used to be that there was no service outside of the warranty period and to even get that meant shipping the unit back to China and waiting for months for turnaround.

    If I want to get a new focus band for one of my Nikon lenses, I have two choices; pay a couple of dollars for the part and $40 shipping charges or drive to Toronto and pick the part up myself. The Nikon facility is quite near where my father and brother live and I virtually drive by it when I head out to visit my brother-in-law, so that is just about the only time I buy parts.

    The trick with B&H is to not just order the part, but to order other items you cannot get at home so the shipping charge is evened out over more products.
