Is 67,567 shots considered a high usage camera? Seller claims this is a low shutter count.

Trying to determine if the price he wants is reasonable. I think it is too high.

Well, the camera is rated for 200,000 shutter actuations. So, this one is just over 1/4 of the way there.

Check Sold prices online. Retailers require a profit margin to stay in business. Advantage to doing business with established businesses is that many have a very good guarantee. Have done it both ways successfully. Depends on your risk tolerance. Shutter is rated for 200K - odds are it will run longer - kind of a CYA for the company based, I'd bet, on a couple of In House tests to failure. Best of luck with your purchase!

IMHO, that is an acceptable shutter count and, with grip and RRS bracket, an acceptable price IF it is a USA model (not grey market or”international”). Easy to tell because Nikon bodies intended to be sold in the US almost always have a serial number that begins with the number 3. Nikon US will not repair a camera not intended to be sold here. Other than that, the price seems in line if the camera is in good shape.

You might want consider if the D810 is really the camera for you. I owned a D810 (bought at 85,000 clicks) and loved the pictures, but did not like other aspects of the camera. I’m not going to be the one to tell you not to purchase old technology (others will do that), but try it out if you can and see if it is comfortable and natural for you. And, do you really need the grip?

best wishes on you photographic adventures.

I would say moderate count. Not low. I have a similar one willing to sell for less.

A new D850 just went on sale for just about double that.

I still have a D810 that I kept when I added my D850. It is still a great camera and could actually be considered better than the D850 in some ways. The shutter is quieter, and to be quite honest, there are times that 36mp is still a lot more appropriate than 46. While the D850 does have a couple of features that the D850 does not, and does have a tiny bit better dynamic range, output from the two cameras is identical, for all practical purposes. There is absolutely nothing wrong with its "technology."

If the grip is a Nikon grip, you will be glad you have it. It makes the camera a lot easier to handle and manage, in addition to supporting the second battery. If it's not a Nikon grip, I'd offer a little less. Third party grips can be problematic on that camera and may not offer full functionality to start with. I also think it would be appropriate for the seller to include some good-sized memory cards for that price.

Make sure that you get the manual and as many of the minor accessories as possible. I'd suggest that you download (or at least read) the manual on Nikon USA's website to see what was originally included. The D810 is a complex camera. You're going to want that manual.

The D810 is a great camera. I originally bought my D850 not to replace it, but rather to have a second full frame body. I still use both cameras and have no intention of getting rid of my D810. I expect you will enjoy it.

I have had a D810 for quite some time and still consider it to be a very capable camera. 36 MP is nothing to sneeze at and it has a built in flash which is useful in a pinch. With a 28-300 Nikor zoom mounted I sill find it useful for travel on a motorcycle where I need the kit to be as compact as possible. There are features available in the newer cameras that may or may not matter to you; tilting LCD screens, face recognition focus or focus shift exposures for example. If you decide those features are important to you you could, for about the same amount of money, invest in a Nikon Z 5 (~24 MP) with FTZ adapter ($1,250). That would provide you with a full frame sensor, mirrorless features and a means to use existing F mount lenses with a path forward with the excellent S series Nikor lenses if you desire. I don't mean to discourage you on the D810, it is a perfectly capable camera, but only to address the comment about new features (there will always be newer features). Only you can decide what's important and best for you.

I wouldn't call it low. It's 67,567. Opinions don't count.

With $1250, I would prefer a Z5, or a D780 (both are on sale now). A used D750 would cost around $800 or less is another option.

"Well, the camera is rated for 200,000 shutter actuations. So, this one is just over 1/4 of the way there."

Shutter count is and is not important in my view. With a mirrorless camera and especially one with electronic shutter the actuations of the shutter are less important than with a dSLR. With a camera rated, lets say at 200k shutter life, the shutter could last considerably more or considerably less.
I am not familiar with the D810 so any advise I give you is useless. I am familiar with the D750 and although an "old" camera if I was in need of a new FX body that would be my choice saving enough money to get a second hand lens, something like the 24-120 VR.

I happened to find a D810 a few months back, with less than 1450 clicks. I found mine at Roberts Used Cameras. He's very conservative in his ratings, and I've purchased a number of cameras and lenses from him.

I wish my D810 were that young! I've racked up over 250,000 shots on mine and it is still going strong. I had used it for macro and micro focus stacking sessions where a session would average 350 shots and at times as many as 600. I'd shoot two or three sessions a day.

$double$ is $double$. New and unused, plus a later tech level.

Does that justify double ? And, acoarst, the prices for SLRs will keep sliding. So whoever wants one will be rewarded for waiting in the wings.
