The more significant issue was that the camera can record vastly more than any mere 1 million shutter actuations. How humorous is that?

As has been already mentioned a few times, with refurbished and used there will be multiple units in the shipping department. Add to that when you call customer service you're talking to someone who is nowhere near the warehouse. They have no access to the equipment.

Shutters can be replaced with new ones , and most that are refurbished are replaced , it's less costly for refurbished to be done this way
As the only moving part is the shutter , and the Sensor cost a third of what the camera cost is , and the shutter is only a couple hundred, maybe less than that for them than if we had to do it , but if you have to replace it your into $300 or more plus tax ,

Nonsense.
(1) The shutter is not the only moving part.
(2) The shutter is NOT replaced on most refurbished. Why would they spend "only a couple hundred" to replace the shutter in a fully functional body?
(3) Nikon does not reset the count when they replace the shutter. Anyone remember the D750 "recall"? (It was not a recall. It was a service advisory.) After they replaced the shutter and gave it a thorough cleaning it was returned to me with 2 additional clicks.

Just buy it , the only reason not to buy refurbished is : you just don't want to spend what there asking , any other negative reasons have about about the same chance as happening to a new camera if you bought it , I take that back , there will be less of a chance of any thing
Happening to a refurbished one , simply because every nut and bolts in the refurbished have been checked , and they don't check every one
Coming of the assembly line as closely as a refurbished one , just buy it case closed .

If the camera is a factory refurb and the shutter was replaced as part of the process, then the shutter count would revert to zero and the number you see is the number of actuations since the camera was refurbed, including the test shots taken by Nikon, plus the demo shots at the dealer's. -George-I am looking to purchase a used canon 5d mk II body only from a retailer with whom i've done business...it is advertised as excellent++ condition, with
90-96% of its original condition. however, i am curious about the shutter count which is 125.. the sn# begins with a couple zeros which i considered first
generation. can this be real? i need your feedback

Thank you, not only for giving us the number, but also explaining how it was derived. I wish more people who quote data would post their source or derivation; it would certainly make the information more credible.

Maybe if you changed "couldn't" with "wouldn't" you "wouldn't" have to guess about Nikon cameras, it's not the camera. It's really politics. "Clicks" are important to some, not so with others. Large volume sellers do not want to bother with trivial matters until the sale is final. If clicks are terribly important buy new, otherwise refurbs are actually "used" equipment. It's a personal choice we all have to make.

I have no quoalms about refurbished fom Nikon; it is just my opinion that a utter count ought to be noted when listing the camera
Go to Nikonusa.com and there is ample pull down menu's to let Nikon know how you feel. I would even suggest that you ask them for a response as to why they do not do it. Then, you will have it in writing.
