In looking at their website I can tell you they are selling what is called "grey market" or "import" camera bodies and accessories. The reason Smartphotohut is so cheap is because the items they sell do not come with a Nikon warranty; they will sell you a warranty, as you see on their site but that warranty will be honored by Smartphotohut, not Nikon. Grey Market is not illegal. It's a great way to save a few bucks but you need to understand what you are getting and what you are NOT getting when you buy grey.
Smartphotohut will, most likely, try to contact you and sell you additional items and/or an extended warranty which you may or may not want. In my experience these sort of places are not pleasant to deal with and those without strong constitutions probably should avoid them. They're fast talking and high pressure. If you don't mind getting all up in their face and playing their game you can save some serious money but that is, most likely, the sort of shopping experience you are looking at should you decide to go this route. If you just want to buy something at a good price, worry free, then take the advice that's been given a few times now and shop at Amazon, B&H or Adorama.
