I like to check local sale sites, Craigslist, FB Market place, etc. Most, at least 90% of the Nikons are D3200 with a few D3000, D3300 and D3400. Prices range from $139-$350. Is there a reason so many people want to dump the D3000 series? Found a D40 and a D70 at around a $100, no single or triple digit series.
They're entry-level models. If memory serves, the D3300 and D3400 models featured 'modern' 24MP DX sensor. Rockwell claimed these models have all the technology the general public would ever need in a DSLR. But, there's a glut of these DSLRs across both Nikon and Canon and they cannot hold their value when resold used. But otherwise, they're perfectly 'good', just discontinued.
