[Leica] source for round spirit level replacement

[henningw at archiphoto.com (Henning Wulff)]

A couple of years ago I saw some bubble levels on ebay, both the 
round little ones and the two way ones with a shoe. I bought a bunch 
of each, maybe a half dozen. I think all twelve cost about $5-6 with 
shipping. I still have a couple of the little round ones. Mine are 
11.65mm in diameter and 7.2mm thick. If that works I can send one off 
to you. Occasionally these things pop up. A while ago I saw 50 Leica 
M rear lens caps for $30 with shipping, so now I have sufficient 
lenscaps even though I gave a number away.
