I think the zoom had issues but I was never able to get to the bottom of it. There was no Nikon warranty - just return to the vendor.
I bought several Lenses and Cameras there.   No single Issue with them.  Also registration with Nikon & NPS was no Problem (full warrenty worldwide),  because all Nikon products come from Nikon factories,  Made in Japan, made in Thailand or made in China, depending on the product line ...

I also bought from them, a D500 and TC14 III. Never had a warranty issue, I don't know if it would have been a problem. The Belgian distributor serviced the D500 without questions.

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?

I even got a 5-year-warranty-extension on my used second hand AF-S 1.4/24G prime, that was obviously never registered by the former owner. All of my gear is serviced under NPS conditions as far as it is fit for NPS at all.


No matter if used, grey market or directly obtained from Nikon Gernany or Nikon USA...


And I do not even own a lot of gear, just 5 bodies and 30 lenses

I took the chance and ordered a 135mm Plena from one if these "funny" companies.
I ordered from CostworldsCameras EU at around 1759 Euro which is a good price here in Denmark.
Company seems to have many positive reviews. I also wrote a mail to them and asked some questions and they wrote promptly back.
The price at web is with everything included (shipping, tax, customs).
3 years warranty as standard and I think there is a possibility to extend to 5 years.
Warranty is not at Nikon service but at Costworld.
The order is in state "processing".
The Plena I wanted when it was released but it makes more sense now after I got my first full frame body (Z7II).
Even if gray market the lens must be original purchased from Nikon so Nikon has got their profit?

Here's the worldwide link
(it's Cotswold Cameras)

I live just a few miles away from them. I don't think I've bought from them, but I seem to remember them being long established in the UK
