How much is too much or too little to spend on a New D-200, I am finding it for as low as $800.00 online (no lens). Being that they are around $1700 (also no lens) in all the local stores $800 seems a bit too good to be true. Just curious what others here have paid for a D-200? I am going to get a new camera hopefully by the end of august.

| I paid 1700 for each of my 2, if it sounds too good to be true, it's not, with the D200 anyway. I got mine from Crutchfield.com. |

The 800 dollar on line D200 is a scam.
Run away! Run! I got mine at circuit
city because I was impatient. I see
them all the time now in local camera
stores. B&H even has them occasionally \
now. Best I've seen is about the list: 1699. |

| I agree - that price sounds like a scam. Where did you see it? I just bought mine from 17th street photo (I will never deal with them again - only did so because B&H was out of stock - however, they were the same price as B&H). I haven't even really had mine out to shoot yet(just a few test shots around the house) but I must say, it is an INCREDIBLE camera! You won't be sorry if you pay the B&H price - which, I might add, is comparable to every place else I have seen - and you are dealing with a reputable company. |

| Just go to a reputable dealer and don't play games over the price. If you make a mistake and buy from the wrong guy...it could cost you big. |

| It sounds a bit like a scam... regardless, I would wait a week until Nikon announced the D80. It might affect pricing on the other models, including the D200. |

I drove 100 miles to the Harrisburg, PA "Best Buy" store because I saw they had one available for in-store pickup. I paid $1,633.00 for it and I used their 0 percent interest for 18 months. I was happy with the deal.
I spent time everyday looking to find one, so if you can grab it, especially if it's below $1699 then do so. If it's under $1600 then it is a rip off and avoid the temptation.
You know, I almost bought a 2005 BMW 330ci for $6,000. He just wanted me to wire him a $1000 deposit, and mark "for friend in need" on the memo to avoid taxes. If I did that, then the car would have been mine. Actually, it was some kind of ebay motors scam.
I just found one available at BestBuy for in-store pickup at:
Maple Grove MN 12905 Elm Creek Blvd N, Maple Grove, MN 55369

STOP NOW AND READ MY THREAD!!! from yesterday, especially if the company is either CCI Camera City or Photonation.
D200 price drops below $760 - Is this real? |

I just got mine 2 days ago for $1699.00, that seems to be the running price.
