[QUOTE="HSon, post: 107998, member: 12639"] I would say it would be better than new. I'm from NY as well and two years ago I purchased a brand new 24-70mm 2.8 from J&R which worked at first. I used for a day and put it away and didnt pick it up for at least two weeks. When I tried to take pics that day it would autofocus. I already sent in the warrany card but went to back to J&R to speak to a the salesman. He told me if I hadnt sent in the warranty card he would have exchanged it on the spot. I had to send it to Nikon and it was back in a week and a half. The cpu board went on the lens. Easy fix and I was told by Nikon that the new part was warrantied for one year from fix date so this should apply for the body as well. No problems since. Remember before they sent it back to you it will be tested numerous times to make sure it works correctly. If it comes off the assembly line where it was mass produced do they honestly check every unit? I doubt it. I felt the same way when I got it back but forgot all about my lens issue until I read your post so you should to. Be glad when you get it back working and just forget all about it and go out shooting. :) [/QUOTE]
