SB-900
Dec 29, 2012 04:35:49 #
Just got my new SB-900. Wow, that is one fast recycle rate.
Went to B&H site, (I buy way to much stuff there, according to the other half). Saw a used one there for 399.00. Said no apparent wear. I was hoping that the instruction manual came with it. When I received it, to my suprise it is NEW, not used. All the instructions were in German only. Certainly was no problem for me. Downloaded the manual from Nikon site. I used it at a family diner and am quite satisified. Now, I can practice on portrait pics. Gotta love B&H. Was there over the summer. Mega store for sure. Felt like a kid in a Candy Store.

I did the same thing with Adorama in the 1960's. I wanted to see what this store with the big magazine ads looked like, so I drove 2 1/2 hours to see a closed store. :D

I believe I am a little north of you, I did not drive, I took a bus. But whats funny is, my brothers, nephews and friends were going to a car show, but not me, no, I was going shopping at B&H and Adorama. I ended walking around Manhattan with my wife, sister-in-law and daughter carrying their shopping bags. Boy did I get a razzing when I got back on the bus.

I have been wanting to purchase a couple of 600's to update my D200 backup cameras but the so called dust issues are scareing me away, I dont want to deal with the file size of the 800.

Nice to hear who were well treated.
I retired at 65 after 40 years in high techsales. I had spent 40K at Hunt's Melrose and got to know the owners. I live in Norwell MA and last year they opened their 8th store in Hanover, next town down from me, about 3 miles. In Sept I went to work there. Having a ball but still buying too much gear. This week a new tripod, ballhead and 60mm Olympus 4/3 Macro lens. Last month a D600 (Over 1K shots so far and no issues BTW)
Hunt's Mission statement is "All Customer's who come to Hunt's should leave feeling that they were given a positive customer experience that is unmatched by anyone else in the Industry" Really great place to work but very, very dangerous..........
