[QUOTE="Fred Kingston_RIP, post: 749528, member: 10742"] There's most likely some culture shock in the fact that Nikon, the epitome of Japanese quality and precision is acknowledging that their workers have crossed the line and place money over their national spirit... Of course, we're assuming the move is prompted by a demand for higher wages, and NOT a demand for higher taxes from the surrounding factory area... I'd be interested in hearing what exactly the costs were/are that motivate the decision...but I'm sure Nikon won't divulge the details any time soon. Certainly the new eBay tag going forward on used/pristine Nikon gear will be the applicable, "Made in Japan" as a declaration of perceived quality...along with moderate price increases. [/QUOTE]
