Not that I'm in the market for these at any time in the forseeable
future, but...

Browsing E-thing accessories on emporium.olympus.com, I noticed  the
LH-120 and LH-120B lenshoods for the 300mm f2.8 and 90-250mm f2.8
lenses.  The web site indicated they were out of stock, but listed
prices of $615.99 and $529.99 respectively. The Adorama web site, had
them listed at $449 and $340. 

I realize these are attachments to $5500-$5700+ lenses, but why so
expensive?  Are they made out of beryllium or something similar?
