Is adorama a good website to buy a refurbished dslr?
I saw the website and it really fits the price I can spend on a dslr camera, although it is refurbished by nikon (which I heard is good too when you don't have much money).
Will it be reliable to spend $496 for a Nikon D3200 in adorama.com?
Any suggestions will be appreciated
Yes Adorama & B&H Photo are perhaps the best companies to deal with. I have dealt with one or the other since I was age 17 (now 72). The main thing to know is that they are trying to give you the best possible price. So when you call their 800# KNOW what you want and it's price, have your credit card by your side, know the catolog #.
If you want to "chew the fat" for information then use the written thing to communicate. Or of course email, but with the written "talk" feature your get your answers right away. I can't comment of the price, but usually either of these companies offer the best price without the worry that you are being scammed!
NOTE: These companies are Jewish and as such observe Jewish holidays, so they are closed until the Wednesday after Passover/Easter
$496.95 get you a brand new seal packed D3200 with the 18-55mm kit lens bundled

ditto offer at B&H, http://www.bhphotovideo.com/..._With.html
Adorama are amongst the most trusted stores in photography, or so I believe
Yes, they are indeed offering the same package in refurbished at $399
Now I would personally not opt for refurbished. For savings, I would look at a new D3100 instead - http://www.adorama.com/...100KB.html
If you are shopping the used market, also look at http://www.keh.com which is a very good source for used gear. Adorama and B&H are the other two that you pretty much don't have to worry about.
Yes I have purchased a Sony HX10V from Adorama them and they delivered it on time…
They are one of the best online camera companies, I have used them for years. Their prices are competitive and they are honest. If I was going to buy a used or re-furbished camera, Adorama and B&H would be at the top of my list.
Yes…
Even in the UK I've heard of Adorama - and we don't have them in the UK!
They have a very good reputation and I've often seen them recommended on this site and several others.
