After the demise of my beloved D90 :'( I am looking at taking the possibility of upgrading and have my sights set on a D600.

Have hunted around and very tempted by the HDEW price of £1260 for the body. I've already searched, regarding HDEW and see that TP's find the company to be very reliable :thumbs:

Just wondering if any fellow TP'ers had any alternative suppliers to watch or notice of any forthcoming price drops (highly unlikely I know).

Thanks,

John
 
All good then?
 
If I do buy the camera from HDEW cameras, are there any particular questions I should be asking or anything specific I should get confirmed?
 
Ask for a vat receipt. They can supply them when requested but don't unless asked.
 
Bought my D600 from HDEW and the service was fantastic. Very helpful on the phone and took about 5 days from order. Had to return a 50mm 1.8d because of purple haze in centre of optic(common problem) and the turnaround was 3 days and they refunded my postage. Would happily use them again and probably will sooner than later:)
 
Ordered the camera on Friday, rang today, they stated that it should be sent out tomorrow for Friday.

Excited :D
 
I am a little worried about HDEW in case they are selling grey imports. The reason for this is Nikon usually offer a 2 year warranty on their cameras but this company is only offering 1 year. This 1 year warranty is the standard international warranty and they are offering their own one as an extra.

This is not normal Nikon practice as far as I am aware and when the warranty runs out getting a repair may be difficult.

I would strongly suggest asking about this point before purchase, I am be wrong but something doesn't seem right.

Doesnt everyone know they are a grey importer?! Its the only way they can offer stock so cheap.

Strangely, their price has increased, since the Nikon cashback promotion, now £1275 instead of £1260. Given this, it's as cheap to go via someone like WEX, get quidco cashback and the price is roughly the same.
 
I am on the lookout for the D600 also but it does seem like the cash back deal voids any grey import savings at the moment. Does anyone know what's happened to Panamoz? I was ready to buy for 1085 but no response by email etc. are they out of business??
