	Hi Group -

	I bet that Leica/Leitz is like most companies.
	Charge what the market will pay.

	No way does it cost $45 for a plastic lens cap that has
	essentially nil technology and probably costs less than
	5 Pfennig to make. (For comparison, it costs $0.25 to
	make a far more complicated item, like a CD (compact disc)).

	-- Wolfgang
