Rear Lens Caps

Has anyone ever gotten generic rear lens caps or any other caps from CameraGear.com?
I would love to have three or four rear and maybe two front lens caps at little cost without sacrificing how well they fit.
Can you offer any other suggestions or comments on CameraGear specifically?

I purchased 5 lens caps, 1 filter stacker, and 2 hoods from them. The items shipped quick and I've been pleased with the quality and price. I actually was kicking myself because I forgot to buy a body cap.

Their photo might not be accurate, but it doesn't show the flange which covers up the contacts on newer lenses. I have bought these which are very close to Pentax ones.

There may be other sellers with similar caps. For front caps, I like the center-pinch ones which I didn't see on the CameraGear site. I got some recently from these guys:

67mm Center Pinch Snap on Front Cap for Lens / Filters - eBay (item 230306996578 end time Mar-11-09 07:48:39 PDT)

With eBay, watch shipping costs carefully with lens caps.
