James: I mostly use my go-to lens, 24-70; that would be the heaviest. I have a few primes that I use as well and I occasionally use 70-300 zoom. I rarely use a tripod. Regardless, even if I used Nikon\'s heaviest lens, should it crack a camera frame?
I think I\'m able to post photos now. If this works, the photo on the left is the ebay camera in nearly identical condition as mine; the photo on the right is mine:
The crack seems consistent with a fall from a tripod or monopod.. Not saying this happened, but if a camera fell from several feet ateacher to a tripod this conceivably could happen. I would think that there would considerable damage to the shell though.
So sorry that this is happening to you.
