Anyone care to share places on getting used Nikons? Which place has the best rating system? I recently got a D1x from KEH that was listed as "Like new" and the rating was right on the money. I'd like to get another one in that same or better condition but all they have are a few rated below that category. Any positive experiences with any companies out there?
I also noticed that some of the big name companies that sell new equipment (like B&H, Adorama, etc) don't have much of a used selection. I'm interested in companies that specialize in used equipment.
Keh really is the only place i will buy used. I have tried others like adorama but KEH is unbeatable in that respect. Or using other forum members(buy/sell).
Wouldn`t it be nice if there were a few brand new ones still available?
But alas, the best one can hope for is getting an extremely low mileage one in pristine condition.

E-mail sent bud. I have a real nice D1X and a ton of other items. 10.5 to 500 f4. Check your e-mail and give me a call. Also loads of backgrounds, lighting equiptment and other goodies.
I've had good luck with KEH, but last time I bought a 'LN-' lens from them, and it wasn't LN-. Cosmetically there were no marks, but the slide-out attached hood wasn't round. It had been bent into an elliptical shape, so it didn't slide in and out well. They took it back, of course, but shipping it back was a pain, and they didn't have another in like condition to send me as replacement.
