Rudra,

Here is another. They only do Hoya, and of course I do not know if you are after round or square.

Store locations at the bottom of the page.

You will need to paste this in to your browser as I now keep being sent to EasyJet when I try and add hyperlink. Perhaps they think I will bring one over for you.

Rudra,

Here is another possible.

Jacobs Photo ....... 74 New Oxford Street, London WC1A 1EU

No time to trawl through to see if they do filters as the boiler repair guy has just arrived.

Another copy paste though as Easy Jet is still my hyperlink

But they really DO deserve to go under for being too expensive!

Have we never heard of haggling in this country? I have used Jessop's many times and have always found that most of their staff are very helpful - the only time I have failed to get a reduction, was when I went in in a hurry to get a CF card and could not be bothered. In case you are wondering, I got my D3 from them and was given a discount of over £300.
