Can't find them on eBay anymore?
After 1 mic sock filters, anyone know where to get them? Noticed someone asking on the other channel to with no replies as yet.

These seem to work fine.

Yes, seen those but the listing of that sort I tend to avoid where possible.
English name but ships from China but boasts of being a UK seller.
Looks like I have no choice though.
I take it you use them yourself?

yes, I use one under the bio centrifuge just in case of a accident (not that I have had one, I've used the centrifuge for 6 years now.) They work fine, I don't think mine came from China. Don't know why filterbagman 2 doesn't list anymore.

There used to be another as well, Skoda boy or something.
It's probably lack of sales because of tight fisted veggers washing them instead of replacing.  ;D
