Beautiful Steel Grey (indisputably the best M color!) - $4450.

Will consider a trade for a Black MP plus cash in at least very good condition. These seem to be going around $4600-4700 at auction - why take the risk? None are going to better than this one.

I bought this in June 2010 new and it is in practically perfect condition. I immediately put an LCD protector on it. I also put it immediately into a Luigi half case I had used with my M8, the case threads had worn the finish on my black M8 so I covered these threads with some super soft chamois leather, and protected the body with some screen protector as well.

I can see a very small rub mark or black smudge on the base plate at one corner - it may come off, but I didn't try (this is a tiny mark that is barely visible, it may have been there since new and I didn't notice it, see the last picture, you MAY be able to see what I mean). Other than that, the control wheel is a little shiny where it has been turned, and there is some surface dust, it looks as new, and it should, it has less than 3000 shots taken ( if anyone knows how to check the shutter count accurately I will do it, but my estimate is based on my have 2039 or so shots from the camera in my Lightroom Library - I rounded up generously to <3000 to account for the occasional deleted shot). This is an EXTREMELY LOW shutter count, I doubt you'll ever find one with so little use that is not new!

It includes 2 original Leica batteries, all the original accessories, paperwork, and packaging. It has never had a single problem.

I prefer a US sale to avoid shipping. insurance, customs problems, but will consider an International sale if it has a low hassle factor.


Pictures - Note, the lens and Luigi Strap is not included...
