I searched high and low and finally found one last year that was 
reasonably
unmarked and priced to sell. It sat on my shelf for a few months and 
then I sent
it to Leica for a CLA. Got it back about 2 weeks ago and it's all 
sparkling clean.
The CLA was about $90.

Now I just need some time off from work to use the darn thing... but it 
looks
great on my IIIc... can't wait to shoot it.
