Imperial Model D Typewriter looking for new British home

Marion in Essex in England's south-east is 75 and "having to 'clear out'" her house. She acquired this Imperial Model D many years ago from a friend who was running a charity shop at the time; "it was not selling in the shop, and she thought I would be interested in it. Sadly, I just put it away in the loft, and more or less forgot about it." It has a case and a small box of tools.
If any of my friends in Britain are interested in making Marion an offer, please let me know and I will forward Marion's contact details on.

    First one like that I've seen. I wish I were in G.B.

    Hi Robert, of course those old Imperials have always intrigued me. I'd be very happy to give it a home if someone hasn't already beaten me to it.

    Rob, sorry it has taken so long to respond. Piotr had asked me for a contact email address before I heard from you and I waited until I heard what the outcome to that weas. Piotr contacted the lady and made what we both thought was a very reasonable offer, but she decided not to sell. If you want to email me I can tell you how much Piotr offered, in case you want to go higher?
