All the comments made about Rick's pricing being too high for this item, now you all know why it may be higher than others for a similar looking item.
You get what you pay for from Rick's.

Rick. I recieved my caps yesterday. They arent bad, but sadly they arent to my liking. It looks like they got rubbed around a bit while in the envelope. The indent in the middle of them are barely noticable, but the outer edge of the cap, you can see black. Im afraid if i put them in, you will be able to see. I want to attempt to put them in to see how they look. Are they easy to take out if i dont like them? What should i do if i dont like them? Thank you.

Horray! Mine came today, and they're fine. Installed they look just like they should.
Here's a tip that I first posted sarcastically in another thread about this topic but I now mean seriously: detail your keyholes with a cotton swab and something (I used rubbing alcohol) before putting the caps in. I was surprised at how much gunk I got off what looked like clean metal.
Also, if a cap doesn't seem to fit, try it upside down. HPH
