This was going to be with what I have saved now and the £100 my wife gives me at Xmas and was going to wait till January to see if the prices went down or not Plus my daughter works at Tesco and sometimes get 20% off there purchases which is a good saving and might bring a proper Nikon into the same price as a Grey import. I dont know. But today I was in the local Cash converter and a Guy came in with a camera I could see it was a Nikon but not sure which one. Anyway It was just the body which was a bit doggy I thought. but they gave him a lens to see if the body worked but he could not get a flashing FEE error off and was trying for a few mins but then decided to take it back to sort it and to return later.

Also the two lenses are a Nikon DX AF-S 35MM F1.8 AND A Nikon 55-200MM F/4-5.6 VR DX What price would you think each one of these lenses are worth please? Thank you for any reply's..
