In case anyone is looking, just noticed that Nikon is having a year-end refurbished sale (10% off on most, free shipping on $99 and above) on lenses and bodies. D810 appears more attractive ($1900), especially so if you're from a state where Nikon won't charge sales tax.

Never bought directly from them, so no idea on service, returns, refurb quality, etc.

Some great deals but the sales tax kills it for me. You can buy a refurb from Adorama without the tax for about the same price.

Brand new Canadian bodies with 2 years warranty right now are:

D750: $1479 USD

D810: $2219 USD

D500: $1479 USD

Most people seem to completely avoid sales tax when buying form Canada as well.

Just for comparison.

Curious, but how would that work for US residents? Could I purchase one, get the 2 years warranty, and then simply mail across the border if I ever needed service? Is Nikon Canada honoring the warranty for US people? Or would you need a friend in Canada to act as a go between? That D500 is mighty tempting at that price...

The $1479 is tempting but if you look at the package you get now with B&H or Adorama you could sell the battery pack and be very close to the Canadian price and would have a USA one.

Yes sir - that is basically it. Canadian retailers will help you with the process too, in the extremely unlikely event you need to take advantage of the warranty (confirm exact details before buying). It's no different than a Canadian buying it once it's back in Canada - normal Nikon warranty, but 2 years instead of 1.

On top of that, both during the Canadian warranty period or after the warranty period expires, Nikon USA will always work on the body for their normal fee because it is of course not grey market either. So, you've always got options, but lets say you needed something done immediately and you lived right beside one of the Nikon USA facilities, they would happily repair the body for their normal fee as if it were off warranty.

Canadian price conversions are also a good thing to look at before buying used - I wouldn't even consider it unless the USA used price was substantially less than the Canadian price.

D750 refurb is $1300 now on Nikon US refurbished site.

Canadian (Henrys) price for the new 70-200mm f2.8E is almost US$400 less than in the US.
