when asking about cameras|||adorama.com has some gray market products
they explain what gray market is and how it works|||A gray market camera is a camera which is identical to what you'd get (with US warranty) - but it was imported via a third party, instead of through the official distributor.
You'd save a little, but if it breaks, you'd have to send it to someone else (usually provided by the seller) instead.
Not worth saving that sort of money because you may have problem getting it repaired, even if you want to pay for it, once the "warranty" runs out.|||To further explain, be informed that Nikon will not repair a gray market camera. If you buy a Nikon camera or lens that was not officially imported by Nikon USA, they will not repair it under warranty. AND, they won't repair it in any case, even if you offer to pay. Independent service centers can do minor repairs, but won't be able to send it in for any technical support.
That's like buying a car that the maker won't supply original parts for.
