Birddog, looks like you could sell your camera for a handsome profit in these early days http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 27927&rd=1

So Glen, searching on Ebay for a D2x... does that mean you're in the market for one too? ;)

I can tell Mr Poon to order two in - special discount. :p

Yes! Seen them on eBay for US$5600, equivalent with Maxwell stock price in Sydney at the shop (ECS) but do they have them?
Lot of eBay sellers play this game and have no stock atm.
I heard two of Aussie customers complainted about it yesterday, when they rang me and asked for the D2x stock, they did BIN and email sent to them later with information of waiting game in 10-15 days.
I can't do that to my fellows members or my customers :wink:

Sold for $5912 US ($7587), seems there is a small margin on some of the early grey ones :wink:

Sydney best prices with Nikon/ Maxwell stock I can get is under 7K.
These prices are only for few fellows got cash to burn.
Stock will be healthy by end of March or April, and you guys will see what's the price of it in May or June, by Ausgust, hopefully the D2x will be on the shelves of most of the stores, and it depends on the Aussie dollar also.

It's going to be very interesting to see where the prices of the D2H go over the next two months.

Methinketh there could be some bargains to be had in that realm.

US D2h users already dumped them in the used market as lower as US$1200.00, and in mint condition as US$1500.00
