D5500, Body only - Just repaired to factory standards by Nikon

I purchased a new DX camera while this was away for repair. I sent the camera for repair because the camera would not eject nor accept the SD card. Nikon discovered and repaired additional problems and returned the camera with a statement that the camera was repaired, serviced, cleaned, and now meets all factory standards. I consider the condition to be like new. Nikon zeroed the shutter count but one of my more recent photos (Jan 2019) prior to repair has 7733 shutter count on the EXIF data. I imagine the count now stands at about 7800. Included is the body, lens opening cover, strap, Nikon USB cable, 2 Nikon EN-EL 14 batteries, Manual, and the documents relating to the repair. $435.00 and I will pay USPS priority shipping to the lower 48 states. Other photos and documentation available. Please PM me with any inquiries.

Are you sure Nikon "zeroed" the shutter? They never do that unless the PCB was replaced.

I only know that I have taken a few pictures and the count now says 13. Oh, it says replaced main PCB

Well that explains the count. It starts all over with a new PCB, the old data is lost when the old PCB was removed. Typically this is needed is the camera has been wet, but they can just fail on occasion as with pretty much all electronics.

Never wet. No claim of moisture problem by Nikon.
