I keep getting pop up ads from 42nd St. Photo that provides the great prices for the Sony a7Rmk2 and the Fe lenses. They are all gray market, w/o U.S. warranty. Has anyone made the purchase and if so did the camera or lenses come as new and in excellent working order. Zing

I suggest you use the "Search" function at the top of the page and type in 42nd St. Photo to see what others have to say about them.

Here's a hint----They are a scam outfit.

grey market, buyer beware. there have been many comments about 42nd street photo and how they have scammed the buyer. almost anything you buy will not be supported by a warranty, and if 42nd street gives you a warranty, it is not worth the paper it is written on. just my opinion.

Run away. If it is a deal you seek, there are reputable places to find them.

Cameta Camera is a great place to find a deal and they give a 1-year warranty on their factory refurbs. Nikon doesn't.

Nope. I can recognize sleezy, lying, scumbags when I see them. Most of the time, anyway.

Stay Away! Deal with proven reputable outfits like Adorama, BHphotovideo, etc. For used KEH is great (although a bit on the high $ side for many items, IMHO).
There's a reason outfits quote real low prices....they are bait and switch and try to up sell you after they snatch the hook in....Stay Away!

I bought a grey market Canon 70D from them. Had some autofocus issues-called and explained my problem, and they promptly replaced it. My only dealing with 42nd ST, but a good experience. There's a lot of "band waggoners" on this group, so take everything for what it's worth-or not.

There has to be one good story to tell and they can't be complete schmucks or they wouldn't still be in business but the overwhelming concensus is to stay away.

My sole experience with 42nd St. Camera was really bad. It was several years ago, but with lots of good outfits around, why go back?

I have not heard of a pleasant experience from 42nd photo.

You want to buy from Adorama, B&H, Cameta, Hunt and many other reputable dealers.
Believe me, you do not want to deal with 42nd Street Camera.
