Dont forget to add customs charges and vat, and also a stepdown convertor for the battery charger0

Try this one here http://www.47stphoto.com... a lot more than you $599.00 though so maybe your price is a little iffy. I know my friend who is a wedding photographer has mail ordered from this company in Brooklyn and had no problems.
Also try http://www.avforums.com/forums/index.php? for DSLR reviews and information if you are relatively new to digital.0 -
Thanks,but Even With Vat Etc Its A Lot Cheaper Than Uk Price0

Thanks.looked 47stphoto But To Expensive.price Needs To Be Under $1000 To Make It Worthwhile. I Have Seen Lots Under $1000 But I Am Looking For A Trust Worthy Link.the Original Site I Saw It For $599was At Expresscameras.com But They Havnt Replied To Email & It Does Sound To Good To Be True As They Retail For At Least £800 In Uk.0

When looking for prices in UK or in US i allways benchmark my Web finds against Amazon to give me a realistic price what i would expect to pay either side of the atlantic.As you can see here in this link...http://amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/104-4297666-4587127?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=nikon+d200&Go.x=19&Go.y=13
Amazon price for the D200 is still way up there so your $599 is maybe a little to unrealistic. Also you do realise your $599.00 is for the camera body only on Expresscameras? you dont get a lense for that price which is cool if you already have kit but if you dont you obviously will be needing a lense i take it!
Just a thought i price matched my D50 at Jessops against a web print out, as long as the item is in stock on the web then Jessops will match the price.Try also http://www.camerapricebuster.co.uk/prod24.html for pricematching amongst UK dealers as wil most dealers in Tottenham court Road ( London) dependant if you are local of course!0 -
Thanks.I only need the body. Jessops would appear to be the cheapes in UK as greasy palm offer a 10% off code too.thats still £800 so If I can get one for $1000 thats about £540 plus if I'm unlucky to get zapped for VAT thats only appx £635 plus courier fee of about £20 so a total of appx £655 saving me a appx £165 but I have seen quite a few at $8990

I saw this post yesterday but I couldnt find the body anywhere near the $599 your looking for. if they dont reply to email I definatly wouldnt be sending them any money.
try b and h photo video in New york they are reliable jr.com maybe.0 -
Thanks to all.I have found a brill web shopcartusa.com just typed in nikon d200 & has given some good competitive usa deals from $6590
