Maybe someone already stated this, but I guess by now I would have been on the phone to Leica in New Jersey (this was a US sale/dealer?... I've lost track) and have asked their advice. We've heard a lot of well-meaning but speculative advice but why not go to headquarters with the story? Personally, I would never purchase a camera or other serial numbered item from which the serial number had been removed ...regardless of the story presented to me. Doesn't seem worth the potential hassle.Regards, Mike Gardner
