I think should be $30 odd. You could also get a Tokina Cir Polariser which costs less than the Hoya ones (Tokina makes filters for Hoya!!!)

Tokina might be an OEM maker. They also have their own brands of filter. At MS Color, a 52mm Tokina Circular polariser costs $25 while a similar 52mm Hoya one costs ~$34.

I bought my Hoya one for $32 elsewhere.

I bought my Tokina 77mm Cir-PL at MSColor for $45.00

btw, for circular polarisers, do you know what "0.75 pitch" means? I saw at The Camera Workshop that some Hoya filters come with this label.
