Message from Helen Oster at Adorama Camera
........the cheapest you will find one that is brand new and has a USA warranty rather than imported like a majority of adorama's stuff
I really must put you right on that!
Adorama sells
very few direct import items, and those that are, are very clearly marked on our website.
In addition, as an authorized reseller we
never sell direct import camera bodies.
If a customer selects a direct import item, and we have the US version in stock, we will send that out at the lower direct import price.
The very few direct import items that we sell - for example a few of our lenses - all come with an identical warranty to that provided by the manufacturer. The only difference is that a faulty item would need to be returned to Adorama, rather than to the manufacturer.
