Re: Where to buy Nikon D3 body in the UK

I wish to buy a Nikon D3 body, but are not too sure where to get it
from. I'm looking for the cheapest *decent* place.

I looked at Simply Electronics (the cheapest I could find at 2548), but
a search of the internet reveals they are not too decent/honest and are
based in Hong Kong. I've bought other stuff from places like them,
without fuss, but are not going to risk it on a D3, as there it too much
money involved.

Grays of Westminster is another option, but at £2799 they are the one of
the more expensive. They have the advantage of a good reputation and two
years warranty. They are looking quite attractive though at this minute
in time.

Amazon has them at £2771, but its on the Amazon market place which I'm a
bit more suspicous of. I've bought loads of books via the amazon
marketplace, but not willing to do so on an expensive camera.

John Lewis, who offer one of the best customer service policies around
do not unfortunately sell them. (I did think of asking if they could get
one in, but I doubt it).

I did think of Jessops too, but at £2849 they are the most expensive.
But I know when I bought an F6 from them, I managed to get it below
their list price, but it also took a long time to come in.

I'd rather find someone that has one physically in stock, where I can
collect one and is a reputable UK dealer. I'm not looking to save the
last penny, but neither do I wish to pay an excessive amount.

Any ideas who I might have overlooked?

Google UK ?
