See, I thought it was stolen, because it's been missing for a really long time and I'd looked EVERYWHERE. (go here to read the post about how I thought it had been stolen) But this weekend I cleaned out the garage and there was this backpack that had been sitting on a shelf from a time when we'd gone hiking, then cleaned out the car in a hurry so I'd just set the backpack on a shelf... and, um, turns out my "missing" camera was in there. :embarass:

So seriously, now I have two, and I want to sell the one I just bought. I got it refurbished (by Nikon) for $410 last month. It would include the camera body, the 18 - 55 mm lens, the battery charger, the manual, the CD for the programs that come with the camera, the camera strap, and a 2G Sandisk memory card. You could buy a new one for about $490 (although Amazon.com has it on sale right now, whoo hoo! (http://www.amazon.com/Nikon-Digital-18-55mm-3-5-5-6G-Zoom-Nikkor/dp/B000KJQ1DG)) but since this is used, I'd sell it for $350.

It's a GREAT camera--when I couldn't find it, I bought the exact same thing again because I love it.

Any takers?

I'll be second on the list if someone else doesn't take it. I LOVE Nikons. do you think my lenses for my SLR's would work on it?

Wow, wish you'd found it two weeks ago, before I bought my D60!!!! Sigh.

They will fit, but they won't be automatic focus or metering. (I have a D40, too, or I"d be snatchingup Margie's.)

SHIT YES!!! (I'm next in line) (what are we buying?)

Eh, I gather that bitch Sarah (oops!) got the camera? Hey Sarah, dahlink, how's about you play with my camera a little bit and then bring it to me in Mexico? You'd love a little romp on the Caribbean, wouldn't you?

(aw man, WHY didn't I come back sooner???)
