Years ago I purchased a nikon 80 200 2.8 lens that was grey market but B and H offered a Mack 7 year warranty. I ended up using the warranty. No problems at all. I still have the lens but think that in the event I want to sell it, I may have a problem getting top dollar. I was told never to purchase a grey market camera body. Any purchases I make now will have the USA warranty with it.

I'm curious, Adorama and B&H offer 12 month warranties on gray market equipment and fully explain what gray market items are and why they sell for less, usually. Both of these companies enjoy great reputations and great service. I have seen many postings recommending refurbished equipment and suggesting these two companies. I cannot recall anyone suggesting gray market items. Why?
