[QUOTE="editorial_use_only, post: 653323, member: 40895"] I think your questions have been answered, but No. Having the original box and all the original accessories may increase resale value though. This isn't always true, but I have found it true often enough. When I'm looking for new-to-me used gear, given all the ads, I'll start by reading the offers that include the original box. Generally, I've found that owners who keep the original box tend to have equipment in better condition. It isn't always true but I've found it true often enough that now it's a habit. Yes, you can. As observed above, if you are not the original owner, the original Nikon warranty will not transfer to you. If your concern is that you want a manufacturer's warranty, you will need to buy New. Or, look into one of services. KEH, the used camera broker, was offering an extended warranty on all their used gear for example. I have a couple of pieces of import gear bought used but never had them serviced so I can't speak from personal experience. Occasionally, someone comments that Nikon US service won't touch imported gear for repair. If you search around for the subject, I'm sure you'll find some threads. You can always send your gear to an independent repair shop though. [/QUOTE]
