Title: [WITHDRAWN] Nikon D3 for sale [CANADA]
Post by: ianwatson on October 15, 2020, 03:19:34

It was just my luck to post this advert back in March :o Now that we have settled into a new routine, perhaps I can try again.

I bought this D3 as a refurbished item in 2013. Since then it has accumulated just over 9,000 shutter actuations. It comes with the battery, charger, manual, box and a Kirk L-plate.

CAD$950.

(That is roughly €600, £550 or US$700.)

Not posting in interest of purchasing, but you should list the total actuations to avoid people asking anyways.  I would.

I sold mine at 160k for 650€ years ago. Yours looks mint, yet I still would never go back to her. Good luck. Very good deal!

I input the 600€ price to my Excel sheet which calculates the customs fees, and it came out that -to Italy- customs fees are a hefty 189€...
Add to it shipment price, I've had horrible experiences with shp from Canada: either extremly long delivery times (above 90 days), or unfeasibly high fast shp prices (up to 150 CAD$)
Accounting all, cost to Italy is about 850 to 900 euros.
It's possible that customs are different to different EU countries (very likely lower to UK), but it's a possible explanation why you don't receive any offer from EU so far.

Ciao from Massimo

Those customs fees are hefty indeed!

I am not seeing much interest in my local area, either. Oh well. There is a place in Toronto that would likely take it in trade.

If travelling to Europe, take the camera with you and deliver it....

Alas, the current travel restrictions mean it will be some time before I can visit my native UK, let alone the EU.
