Can anyone recommend a reputable internet dealer? Nikon told me not to buy from any internet companies; if the product is labeled gray market they won't even service it. They are turning me off. My local camera store isn't even an authorized Nikon dealer according to Nikon. I would love to stay with Nikon, but if I talk to Canon and discover they are easier to work with I just mightgo to the other side.Would love to hear any suggestions -

B&H camera and OneCall Camera

I have used them as well as Beach camera and have had no problems from them

I've had positive experiences with Beach Camera as well.

Agreed. Have used both on many occasions, with complete satisfaction.

Cameta Camera is another authorized Nikon dealer. They have a lot of good Nikon accessory packages.

adorama all positive to N.Z. so far

You can also use Nikon's directory of authorized dealers:

That should tell you whether a company is legitimate or not.

Nikon probably tells people to avoid all internet retailers to be safe.

I have seen BH Photo and Adorama stores in person and they are legitimate operations.

If you want serious advice, good service without pressure, go here:-

Even down to the fact that they wouldn't sell me a monopod because they had talked to the representaive of the company who said mine was strong enough to carry the D2X and 200/400. Eldar (that's his name there) is the tops. Check them out on Reselleratings or Bizrate - superb. I ordered $7,600 of equipment delivered on time at unbeatable prices. I'd have no hesitation in ordering from them again.
