Note two things:
1. In the US, there is a "Lipton Darjeeling" for sale in bags, which is not
at all even vaguely related to the Green Label tea sold abroad.

2. Lipton Green Label isn't 100% Darjeeling, I suspect, and contains a lot
of the "Darjeeling-style" teas. Which is fine, since you aren't paying
some outrageous price for the name.
