There is a guy that sells JC capes on ebay.com I think he is from Estonia.
I have had a couple of him and they are perfectly acceptable for trout flies and usually go in the £20 to £30 range.

I have a cracking cape from Toby as well and is the best one I have with mainly medium to small eyes and doesn't have a single split feather which is a rarity.

Handle it before you buy it, there's some awful stuff out there in the big bad world, and a lot of chancers trying to offload it on eBay. If you must buy unseen, buy from someone on here with a sound track record, like Toby in the post above. Caveat emptor

Speak to Steve Cooper, 'Cookshill' on this forum. He will sort you out.

I bought one from that guy from Estonia on ebay too. Paid £30 for it, looked ok in the photos, when it arrived it was pure sh1te, every feather bar the very smallest had multiple splits. Moral of the story handle first of buy from someone reputable.
