  ummmmm i do not think $1286 from jb is sale price(jb always have unrealistic ticketed price on most products they are selling).Harvey Norman is selling this for $1288 and that before bargaining with cash in your hands.the good guys also selling this for $1289.so the same price everywhere.not the bargain unless at least 20% off from competitor prices.

    Yeah, I've been shopping around for this camera since it was released in Australia. It's usually retailed around $1500+ and I know that a lot of places are doing specials on it at the moment.
    Last time I tried HN when they had a 20% sale on electronics, but they best deal I got was around $1450 with extended warranty. So I think with all the sales going around, this is probably the best one so far.

    It says 12 Month Australian Warranty…

    Not sure whether that's 3rd party or Manufacturers warranty though hmm…

      I think unless they're an authorised Nikon dealer, warranty won't be with Nikon.

      Non Nikon warranty. Warranty provided by 3rd party company.

      well because it's cheaper :/

      But if Techriffic 'is' selling aussie stock then obviously it's a better bargain there then at JB.

  Lol a little off topic but just thought I'd share … I managed to get the d5000 twin lens kit when it was first released for $888 at David jones because the salesman made a mistake on price match …to this day I have never seen Aussie stock d5000 twin lense kits go for $888.. It is still a bargain 2 years later lol.. Sometimes I think u just gotta be lucky to find a good bargain

  Got the D7000 for $1500 with 4yr warranty + filter (didn't need cards/bag) at JB's special sale a couple of weeks ago. Another ozbug got a better deal, so any of these big franchises that advertise negotiation should be able to equal this.

  D7000 is, overall, the best midframe dslr currently available; the 7D being it's only serious rival. The non-basic Nikons also work with all F-mount lenses made since the 1950s (probably a few exceptions). This, along with the slightly better midframe sensors, is why I chose Nikon over Canon.

  If you're considering the D5100 in this price range save up a bit more and negotiate for the D7000.
