Order 3 or 4 of them and let us know what happens.

Had a quick look at the link
Just a few initial things to beware of:
1) address seems to Bejing so start thinking Nikom :);
2) Shipping is stated as local delivery / pickup - bear in mind 1) above!
3) payment is wire/bank transfer - this will be instant loss of cash.
Above all remember the old addage: 'If something appears to be too good to be true it probably is!'
Not trying to warn you off but you should proceed with the upmost caution.

It's a con, trust me, I been looking for a used D2X for a while now for under £1000 and it aint happening so getting one from china for £200 aint happening either, give it up and save yourself some headache and some cash. I wouldn't sell my D50 for that cheap.. It's a 'scam' from some crazy guy trying to claw some poor buggers cash off them. China is cheap, sure, but not THAT cheap. I have a freind living in China and the best deal he could get me on a D2X from China was 4X that price at least.
As stated before, if it seems too good, then it must be too good, unless of cause you know the person and get a genuine deal.

Yes to us it is obvious but we are not the only ones who read camera forums.. I can bet they have managed to 'scam' money out of some people otherwise they wouldn't waste the effort to advertise would they..
so what seems obvious to people in the KNOW, may not be obvious to some people without our extensive knowledge. My post was mainly aimed at anyone reading it who thought it may be a good deal.
PS- I didn't order mine from them.

Also, human nature is such, that once you set your heart on something, you kind of "blank out" any chance it may not be true or a 'scam'.
Trust me, a D2X at that price is a con, or should I say NiCON..
haha, you see what I did there?

Don't know but the postal code was 12345.
Sounds a bit suspicious to me. ;)
