There is no mention as far as I can tell if its a USA model or a gray market. Personally, I wouldn't touch a gray market camera unless I bought it as a disposable when trouble happens. The price is a little high. But everything depends upon condition.


It states that it is "USA not GREY". Bottom of the EBAY page:

You are biding on this package:

1. Nikon D610 with a shutter count of (as of today) 3,856. (USA not Grey)
2. Nikon Af-S 24-85mm 3.5-4.5 ED VR Lens,
3. Tokina AT-X Pro D 100mm F2.8 Macro lens (1 month old)
4. Nikon SB-400 flash and the case, a
5. 16 GB Ultra Plus Scandisk
6. HGX 72mm UV filter. Nikon HB-63 lens hood.
7. BH-551 lens hood.
8. Nikon battery charger with original Nikon battery and an aftermarket back up battery, plus all the cables that came with the camera.
9. Domke F2 camera bag in excellent condition.

You would not know any of this gear was not new. No boxes or manuals with the exception of the Tokina Lens. See my feedback and bid with confidence.

Please ask any questions you may have. Good luck. Ship to United States only!

It seems high to me. Local consignment on that lens is $400--and they tend to be on the high side. Nikon USA has a refurbished D610 for $1150. I'd personally go refurbed over EBay


Concur. Nikons asking price on e-bay is usually above Nikon Reconditioned and Nikon warranties are not transferable to new owner. The additional items add at least $300 to the body price.

They all say that. I have returned several items that had that wording in the listing.... That said, I'd likely check out KEH for used & Nikon for refurbs (Cameta may be more price competitive on factory refurbs)


Concur. I've gotten better deals thru Cameta than direct from Nikon.

If you end up buying a body, suggest you go with the Nikkor DX 18-140mm lens. It covers all the ranges you are likely to need since it is 27-210 FX equivalent. I have one and seldom mount any other lens.
