Authentic Hoya filters off the bay?

Just a question really, as some offers seem to good to be true!

Have been looking on 'the bay' at Hoya ND4 and ND8 72mm filters and they seem to come out around £15 including postage. Now, these filters from the UK are around £30-£35.

Am i to paranoid about these Hong Kong sellers or are these prices really that amazing?!?!?!

I've bought one, seems legit to me, and the prices seem right for £15.

I got a 58mm hoya cpl off the bay...but from a UK seller. was £17 which I thought was quite good.

personally, i wouldn't buy from a hong kong seller. chances are the item is legit but i'm a seller on ebay and the hong kong sellers are causing a bit of a stink on ebay at the moment, but that's for another forum!

I got a cheap Hoya CPL filter and it was fine.

Have bought Hoya Filters from HK without fuss, but I understand your fears.

Fast delivery too.
