Mon 01-Mar-21 10:16 PMhi jerry. I would have no reservations buying on ebay whatsoever. I have personally bought a d500 and a d810 on ebay and sold a d7000 and a d750.
Just be sure to buy from a seller who has a fair amount of transactions and has been a member for a while. also check feedback score and only buy from a seller with 99% or higher positive feedback. I once purchased a d810 before the one i currently own and in tracking the delivery it was supposedly delivered, however i never got it. After contacting the seller he claimed he got a message from me telling him to send it to a different address which he said he did. Either it was a scam or he got scammed somehow. Anyway I immediately contacted ebay and explained what happened.
They did a quick investigation, and about 5 days later I was issued a full refund. The point is that you have protection from ebay in the event the seller doesnt fulfill the order to your satisfaction. You will most likely need a paypal account as well who also offer buyer protection. Just make sure you read the item description thoroughly and message the seller with any questions. Good luck on you d4.

I have the D4s and absolutely love it,
before you settle on the D4s, I would seriously try and pony up for the D5
The D5 was a giant leap in technology

I've got my eye on the 24-85 mm, f/2.8, 35-70 mm, f/2.8, and a 80-200 mm. f/2.8 all Nikon's. That seems quite a haul for one tax return. Obviously the D4s is going to be a well used one, but it will still be new to me.

Lenses last almost forever
If you do get the D4s, I have a D4s cheat sheet you can have if you want it
and excellent idea on the fast glass as I'm always chasing light

Sat 13-Mar-21 01:54 AMAn FYI, through the person I am purchasing a D4s from they are also supplying a copy of David Busch's book about the Nikon D4/D4s. When I tried to find a copy of the field guide for those cameras I discovered that they are priced for $698+ the spiral bound. The regular bound book has a price tag of around $250+.

Sat 20-Mar-21 01:19 PMI had a copy of the Owner's Manual that I had ordered printed from overseas. It was kind of difficult to understand some of the explanations without having the camera at hand to verify what was being read. Things that I read are becoming much clearer now that I can see what is being talked about.

Wed 31-Mar-21 02:17 AMI wonder if he is referring to the button that is labeled AF-L/AE-L on the D750 but is labeled the AF-ON button on the D4s?

Wed 31-Mar-21 06:04 PMHello Silverhair,
I bet if you post most of you comments in the Nikon D6/D5/D4/D3/D2/D1/ forum you get more replies.

If anyone has any experience of purchasing from ebay I would be interested in hearing from you. I've decided to limit the purchase to sellers in the USA only.
