Hi everyone,

I am looking at buying D200 body.
I have been keeping an eye on Ebay's auctions but was wondering if there are any other websites I should be looking at ?

I have also looked at these websites:
(from http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=30638)

Mifsuds - www.mifsuds.com
Ffordes - www.ffordes.com
Aperture - www.apertureuk.com

MXV - www.mxv.co.uk
MPB Photographic - www.mpbphotographic.co.uk

The cheapest D200 I found on the above website was £350 (20,000 shutter actuations).

It seems that I could get cheaper from ebay (perhaps £300-320).

Any advice?
 
If you carry on looking through that sticky thread with the list at the top, you will find several others in subsequent posts, not all of which have been added to the first post.

This is generally a good reference http://www.ukcamera.com/ and has a list of 89 used camera specialists.
 
Mbp had a few last week with very low actuations.
 
MBP have several which are a bit more than your budget, but have single figure shutter actuations. Well worth a look.
 
From experience, I'd be tempted to go with Grays of Westminster.

As I I knew before hand I was going to be purchasing a few items from them, I signed up to their Nikon Owner magazine subscription offer for £59 (per annum), which gives you an 18 month warranty on any second hand purchase and a 3 year warranty on all new items.

Their current list;

Mifsuds have also been excellent to me in the past with both their quality of service (I dealt with Matthew but I'm assuming that all their members of staff are just as good!) and the goods I purchased from them.

HTH :)
