    I got a deal, well I hope I did...

    Hi All,

    I have been shooting for a short time now with a D7000 - And yes I will start to upload for some CC.

    But I just picked up from a mate of mine yesterday:
    Nikon d700 (less than 5000 clicks)
    SB-600 Flash
    MB-10 Battery Grip
    and a battery for the grip

    For a Total of $1500

    Do you think I got a deal or got ripped?

    you got a great deal for sure. a few people will be dumping bodies for the new d800/d4 so the market should be quite good.
    Thanks,

    Current lower end prices for a used D700 body seem to be around $1500-$2k on the internet. Most with much higher shutter counts than that & the cheaper ones look well used.
    Given you've got a grip ,battery & flash with it, and it has has little use, sounds like a very good buy.

    I have a feeling there is going to be alot of second hand D700s around for a while now... you defo got a good price for the current second hand market.... but i have a feeling the more that come on the market, the further the prices will drop.

    Bargain!

    D700 price will stay buoyant and maybe go up as D800 will be hard to get for a while.
