Hey guys, recently I ordered a refurbished 55-200mm VR lens from Cameta Camera. I had been saving up for a new one, but found the refurn on Amazon for 150 bucks!
http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...WLK2RE7O&s=electronics&qid=1207789871&sr=1-18
So I called, ordered the lens, and it is arriving tomorrow. However, when I got the email invoice it says this:
Nikon AF-S 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED DX VR Zoom-Nikkor Lens - Factory Demo
FACTORY DEMO? That's not REFURBISHED! Ugh, that really angers me, but I found out that I cannot cancel the sale, only ask for a trade.
So my question is, has anyone had bad experience (or good) from them? I mean, for the price, as long as it works I should be happy, right?
It does come with a 1 year warranty, according to the salesman (who was a little pushy, but wouldn't budge when I tried to get a shipping upgrade free). That is 90 days from Nikon and an additional 9 months from them!
Well, am I worrying for nothing?
