registration with Nikon & NPS was no Problem (full warrenty worldwide),
Ok, that is both interesting and useful.
I note that the site still tells people to return items that need repair under warranty direct to them
(for their affiliated technicians to resolve).
I'm pleased you were able to do this and wish I'd thought to try.
Logic told me that if a vendor was selling well under Nikons price, they'd be unlikely to pick up responsibility for fixing issues.
I guess Nikon has already made their profit when the camera was originally sold by them.
By that logic, they might warranty second hand nikon gear that passed to a new user within the warranty period?
Does anyone know if they actually do this?
