I don't have any problem paying a reasonable price for quality  
equipment whether a lens or a cap for it. The weird thing with Leica  
is that some of their caps, over the years, were built to last the  
life of the lens and stay on. Others, especially those that clipped  
over lens shade pins, are not worth any price at all. Everyone, of  
that type, I've had has split and end up with duck tape. And they  
don't stay on after real use.
