Always good to see a retailer putting its money where its mouth is. I've had good dealings with Cameta in the past, seems like they're trying to treat you right too. Good people, I think.
Based on their stepping up the plate, I must change my opinion of them to a positive one. It partly depends on the quality of the D300 body I receive, but I'm confident it'll work out well. I've read many good dealings people have had with Cameta, and was disappointed that I couldn't join in the acclaim.
They'll be taking a loss on my sale, since I doubt they'll get much for my old D300.
So, another update. I just received the camera today, and checked the shutter count right away. It's just a bit over 3,100, which seems extremely high for any just-received demo camera. Who knows how much it was used during that time?
My camera is around 8000 shots and if I could reset the counter, you couln't tell it from new and works just like it.
You goota remember that many of these demos are used by people in a showroom and they check out the high speed 5 fps. They really don't have that much use.
