Refurbished Nikon D3200 w/18-55 non-VR and 55-200 VR & Wu-1a for $320
Back to the eBay Deals proper where BuyDig’s eBay store is back with another manufacturer refurbished Nikon DSLR two lens kit.

All come with a 90 day Nikon USA refurbished warranty – and by that I mean “warranty for refurbished items”, not that the warranty itself is refurbished 🙂
UPDATE: as of 11:21pm ET recheck, eBay is back to normal… as of 10pm ET, it looks like eBay individual product listing pages are taking a while to load.

PS: there’s also some grey-market/imported dSLRs from some of the B-list eBay Deals sellers. I’m trying to triangulate what to do with those type of deals. People are buying them per the eBay product listing statistics, but how many of the people who buy them are aware of the warranty trade-offs and risks?
