I think this bunch at Thunderbird Services have a better quality selection and are very competitively priced.

Hello folks, in case you get the wrong idea...
I have not run out of either HT leads or caps, what I suspect this chap is after is the old Bakelite cap that was discontinued 29 years ago! I did have a small number that I acquired a year or two back, for collectors or exhibiting use only, but they have all gone now.
Would only recommend the proper rubber waterproof one for use.
HT cap and lead £13.25 plus £1.50 P&P. here.
HT cap alone £3.25 here. Watch out for the hidden extra on the Bay, the P&P!
Regards,
John

Does that mean that it would be sensible to buy water proof rubber caps for my two (hopefully they dont work lose and fall off the plug either) and sell the originals from 1973 and 74 respectively with screw up fittings on the top at an enormous profit on ebay.

Gonna get my old one out too!
L@@K!! RARE!! Discontinued 29 years ago! Genuine Seagull. Take this rare chance to aquire etc etc. No reserve ( but starting price at £25 )
Shouldn't laugh really.
Seriously hadn't thought about the aesthetics side before, I think I do have a 70's cap somewhere, if anyone wants one to make an old gull look authentic they are welcome to it, don't guarantee it works tho.
