The bidding could get fairly hot (and transatlantic), so if you're after one to use rather than for a collection you might want to inquire about the unlabelled one.

Wow, those UK Greenock labels look different from the US ones.  I'm tempted to poach transAtlantic but once I start buying Model Ms because of the label someone needs to shoot me.


It also uses a different capslock etc. light label to most older Model Ms.

Rather unusually, Greenock made some US ones after the US plant was sold to Lexmark. I've seen at least two on ebay before.
