Nikon Refurbished is 90 days, merely information technology is factory Refurbished then I'd trust its condition to be better in the long run. Some prices and savings are non that swell from Nikon Refurbished section I bought a lens from their and have had no issues with information technology.
On college priced lens I bought the MACK three Yr Diamond Warranty not that much, so in the end I paid slightly less total but take no mistake repair or replacement Warranty if needed.

Re: Nikon Refurbished warranty
Nikon offers a ninety warranty as others take stated.
I have returned re furbished to Nikon because I idea it looked rougher than I had expected and non as clean every bit other re furbished items I had purchased previously.
Cameta camera provides a 1 year warranty on re furbished items. KEH offers 6 months and also provides the ability to purchase an extended warranty.
Buydig but provides the ninety day factory warranty but does offer a 3rd party extended warranty for purchase (through e bay at least).
Adorama besides has a third party service contract bachelor. I'm pretty sure that B&H too offers 3rd party programs.
Depending on the item it sometimes might just be better to buy factory fresh and obtain the total warranty. I purchased an SB700 through Nikon (refurbished) and it was just about $30.00 less than new. I returned it for 2 reasons and went and purchased a new one with total warranty.

Honestly, I would buy KEH before Nikon refurbished. KEH has a practiced render policy and the lenses etc. Are probably working well. The Nikon refurbished had a known effect when it was returned to them and the repair might not hold up well. Also, the prices they accuse are manner besides loftier.

And I tin confirm they are VERY fussy about returns. And so much so, that I volition not buy refurbs from them Always once again. They gave me huge grief on a Coolpix A return (grit and lint on the sensor). I finally but told them I would deny with my CC company and let them deal with them.
Finally a supervisor canonical my return and issued the credit.

i tend to trust a mill refurbished camera more than a new 1. Personally I got a refurbished D7100 /7200 in mint condition. Absolutelly flawless and nether 100 clicks.
A new photographic camera comes off the assembly line being mass produced while a FACTORY refurbished one gets much more 1 on 1 personal attention. The camera is assigned to one technician which puts information technology thru it'south paces so there is a much better chance information technology will exist washed right.

My luck has been skilful with refurbs, other than my Coolpix A. My Refurb D7100 was clearly brand new, we actually it had 6-7 clicks on information technology. I had a 50mm 1.8 G that looked brand new equally well.

I have no inside knowledge of how Nikon works "refurb". I retrieve some are brand new they are just reducing stock on. I remember someone simply reboxes and off they get.
I wish I could believe that the 1 on i really happens - WITH A "Technician". My guess would be that it comes to their refurb center. I call up it does get looked at past a human, merely suspect the person on the front end terminate has express skills. Probable VERY limited skills. If they turn it on, seems skillful I bet they go cleaned boxed and off they go.
If they are Non working I suspect they go to another line of person that has more skill and they see if they can fix it easily. If non - so I doubtable information technology goes to parts or is just junked.
Non certain but I would suspect there isn't much interaction with a technician.
