I received an email today offering me a refurbished Nikon D7100 for $799.95. I had to pay Arizona sales tax but got the camera for $875.00. The email came from the Nikon Store so I jumped on it. Hurry up Wednesday.

It was out of the blue. I came home and started thru my emails and found the one from the Nikon store saying 1 day sale. Man I couldn't pass it up. A Nikon refurb is usually better than brand new.

Gear Acquisition Syndrome
Very contagious and very expensive to treat. All known cures are of dubious reliability. :D

I'm still looking for a country with medical insurance that will cover the cost of treatment!

A Dr. can't help but a trip to the camera store may alleviate the symptoms temporarily.

One single cure:
No money and no body part or kids to sell.

E-mail out of the blue offering a great deal... I hope you verified it is the real thing.

It came from the Nikon Store. Went to the store ordered and entered the promo code and got confirmation from Nikon Store. 3 to 5 business days for delivery.

For some strange reason I think that frequency will increase to daily :lol: What is your status on lenses? Nikon is going to make sure you are a very satisfied customer. Isn't it fun being sought after? Have maximum fun with your new toy. Maybe share some early results??? :lol: :lol:

I got the same email and almost succumbed to G.A.S. immediately. Then I thought... "The D7200 can't be too far away now, with it's rumored larger buffer and other goodies..." Maybe I'll have a more expensive attack in the near future.
