Iwert asked this question about five weeks ago. Here is what I wrote then:
--------------------------------
Jessops in the UK (www.jessops.com) still list this item -- it is priced at
34 UK pounds (that includes the UK sales tax of 17.5%). Jessops can
certainly get the step-up ring, as I bought one last year (that was before
the recent price rises on OM equipment). However, I doubt that Jessops keep
them in stock -- they presumably order them from Olympus UK, Olympus Europe,
or Olympus Japan, so be prepared to wait a few weeks. If you are
interested, start on the Jessops home page and click "Accessories", then
"Lens Accessories", then "Lens Hoods", then select "Olympus" and click
"Search".
--------------------------------
Being listed on the Jessops web site means that the step-up ring is still on
the Olympus UK price list, but if you order one you may find that it is
declared "out of stock" (in which case it will then disappear from the
Jessops web site and Olympus UK price list). If you are buying from outside
the EU, divide the quoted price by 1.175, then add the delivery charge, plus
any taxes that you have to pay on importation into your country.
