[QUOTE="LensWork, post: 375728, member: 1283"] I would be concerned as if it is only a demo/floor model, what happened to the box and serialized registration paper? No dealer I know of throws that stuff away for their display/demo equipment. IF they are indeed an Authorized Nikon USA Dealer (you can check [URL="http://cdn-6.nikon-cdn.com/where-to-buy/nikon_img_auth_dealers.pdf"]here[/URL] ), I would inquire as to what happened to the box/paperwork. Part of the Nikon USA Dealer Agreement prohibts selling most demo/display cameras at more than 10% below new price. You did not say what model this is, but unless it is a D4s, $600 off is way more than 10% off. As the Nikon USA warranty only extends to the original purchaser from an authorized dealer, I would worry that the camera had been previously sold and then returned without the box/paperwork. If this is the case, and the original owner registered it with Nikon, there would not be a Nikon warranty to subsequent buyers. [/QUOTE]
