Imported White Box No Warranty Nikon 70-300mm f4.5-6.3G VR for $200

The Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-6.3G ED VR goes for $400 at authorized dealers which are allowed to include free accessories with it, such as Adorama.

Needless to say this is a higher risk purchase, so if you don’t feel comfortable without any warranty, do not buy!
