This is $12.49 at Adorama or B&H but shipping is unreasonable to the EU. Anyone have one to sell to Europe?

Contact via PM. Thanks!

Did you try this:

Sorry if it is not in the list, I don't quite know what this casual case is.

One of these? http://www.amazon.com/Olympus-Casual-Premium-Camera-Carry/dp/B00479TG3C The one review there says it's quite a tight fit for the kit zoom so that might be a consideration if you hadn't already read that.

Can't say I've seen it in Europe. I have a small Crumpler "Jimmy-Bo 200" that does quite nicely, though I don't have the kit zoom, and if you shop around you can get one pretty inexpensively. And it doesn't advertise "expensive camera equipment inside" either. I think it would survive a nuclear blast too. The only downside is that if you wear it directly in front of you (really, who would?) it looks like a codpiece. Hello ladies.

Try this one:

although shipping is insane, the price of the case itself is CHF 1.00 and if nobody bids on it, you are going to have it for CHF 21.00. Nobody did on the previous one (I saw one end yesterday).

Two of you found the same sale, which was not on eBay when I posted my last message. Thanks! Though shipping is rather insane.

I will be using this with the 20/1.7 so I'm not worried about it being too tight. The lack of extra padding, which most third part cases have, is in fact a bonus as I want the camera protected an hidden but not bulging out of my person.

So, er, no cod-pieces!

That last one sold for 20 quid plus 20 more for shipping. Ouch!
