Hello. I think could be a nice product, but i am worry about the experiences that talks about a "Grey Market". Can you explain this?

Hi, as the other user mentioned, Grey market product is something not authorized to sell in a country but sold. The risk in buying those is, since it was not authorized to sell in a country, you cant claim any support from the manufacturer in that country. If you buy a Grey market Nikon product in USA, you cant get the support from Nikon USA because it was not authorized to sell in USA. They identify this through the serial numbers of the products. These are the only information I know about Grey market products :) The camera and lenses I bought from this seller were NOT grey market products and I was able to register them in Nikon USA website. If it is a grey market serial number and you try to register, you will get an error message saying "Invalid serial number OR grey market product" (I believe that is the only way to figure out, your products are Grey marketed or not). Hope this helps..Please let me know if you have any further questions. Camera and lenses are still working great and I took some good pictures.

You'd be hard pressed to find objective reviews...all of these products are relatively decent, so the main considerations are going to be the price, and how they sound to your ears. Honestly you should try to find a store that lets you compare them.

amazon knowingly allows sellers such as SSE Electronics to sell grey items. If you notifiy AMAZON they will blow you off!!!!! Contact me for details!!!! You have little recourse and AMAZON'S reps don't even know what GREY MARKET is!!! BTW SSE ELECTRONICS, ARE LIARS!!!!!! THEy CONTRADICT themselves!!!!

That's a good question. I didn't worry about it because the price was right for a quality brand. I don't see any problems arising but I probably should have thought more about that. This likely won't help but that was why I purchased the product, quality and price.

In my case, absolutely. In a world of uncertainty, this MGL bunch has proven themselves trustworthy to the point that I consider myself a regular customer. If the product you're looking at answers your needs and the price is attractive and the seller is MGL, I would say proceed with the purchase.

Probably a question best answered by Amazon, I have used this product for the last 2 years, and I am still very happy with it .Or perhaps you were just asking a rhetorical question ? Unfortunately I'm sure Many sellers do the same thing :-(

Thank you, Travis. Many reviews do look fake -- how can a no name brand get 75 reviews in only 2 months of product launch? Anyway, since I've already bought it, I'll keep trying. Appreciate your tips, though.

The item is a Christmas gift for my son, and I sure hope it is a non-grey market item. Sorry that I cannot be of more help.

Thanks for the info. It really helps to get feedback from another consumer as opposed to the company. I appreciate your taking the time. KV

For one, check the warranty .... grey market lenses may not offer a suitable warranty.

Marketing strategies...perhaps, but possibly because the product isnt any better than something from RadioShack at a lot less. I returned mine...still havent been credited back. Bad news, Bro.

Gray market perhaps, do a search for any seller to be on the safe side. I'm waiting for this product to be available for cheaper by a reliable/authorized dealer/seller.

This depends upon the actual supplier/seller. Some sources, selling through Amazon, may offer "grey market" product. This is normally noted in the item description, as is a "USA Warranty". Be sure to read the item description/features closely. If nothing is said, call the vendor. Even large suppliers like B&H and Adorama can offer both versions.

It is regrettable, but Dwayne is correct. These are not well made. In many instances the cheap devices are actually what we (I'm an embedded systems programmer) consider prototypes not really ready for consumers. One of the biggest problems we've run into is wifi, and I imagine 4g is the same. Before we release a product we exhaustively test wifi and other problem features. Digital Reins believes in "testing it in-line." In other words, you're the tester.I recommend you return it if you can. It can't be fixed.

Thank you for your inquiry. With respect and honor, I think it best that you don't purchase this product. By the questions you ask, there will be other variables and you might be dissatisfied and we don't want unhappy customers. Thank you for thinking of us and try us on something else. Thanks.

I am not sure where you saw this advertisement but I would like to remind you that reputation and responsibility of the company selling you the product is more important sometimes than the bargain you think you are getting. Sometimes what you pay for is not what you get so you lose all that should have been an investment to save you money. This company is stellar in backing up their products.

I'm about to buy this and need that question answered too. If I get it before someone knowledgeable replies, I'll advise what I learn. Considering how awful my buying experience was here at Amazon using a Metabank gift card, I'm hesitant. But, I need to use up the gift card funds, so, here goes a second try. Think I'll email the vendor first, just in case.
