[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 492681, member: 15805"] I wouldn't consider the Lee Big Stopper to be a 'cheap' filter. But it IS possible to swap glass between two filter rings. An unethical seller would buy a Lee and an über-cheap piece of crap, then switch out the glass between the rings and peddle the cheap filter in the Lee-branded frame as genuine. It's exceedingly rare, but has happened I'm sure. If the filter was an ebay purchase, look closely at the wording of the listing. Does it have the word 'for' in the description ("10-Stop ND filter for Lee Big Stopper")? Big giveaway that's it not a Lee. As MM mentioned, a picture would be worth a thousand-word response.
