How much can I flip it for?

Not a bad deal. The included lens is all most would need for everything.

18-200 is an overpriced lens and loses more value than other Nikon lenses. They sell used for 350-400.

Where did u see that lens for 350 ?

don't buy...get a used D7000 for <$750 and a used Sigma 17-50 OS, you'll be more than happy

The VR version sells for about that, the VR II version generally goes for $550-625, so it's not that bad.

it's a great all-purpose lens. Not the best at anything, but really very handy. It's on my camera 50% of the time.

(and if you can actually find a VR II for $400, please let me know where -> I'd love to swap out my first-gen VR)

I got this combo last year for 1800. I had price matched at jr and saved tax in NJ. This is good price

is this the one best buy had for 999 on black friday?

The one at bestbuy had the 18-105 lens.

I have checked ebay and you might get $500 for this lens minus ebay fees. It is better to buy new or used d7000. I myself thinking of buying just the camera from dell using amex $150 off promo.

good deal on about to be updated version. All good color accuracy.

Oh Wait! you will regret it because it is a 2010 version, and you now want to upgrade to FX, and you are not happy with 18-200mm lens. But you will keep the 50mm for sure. Also an old version.

This is how much it should worth:
D7000 = $750
18-200mm = $400
50mm AF-S G (not this one) = $220.
Bag $30
Battery Grip= make it $10 because a single charge will shoot forever for any beginner.
TOTAL: Not so good deal.

I am changing my vote.

My bad, I forgot about the Sandisk SD Card. Okay deal. Leave the vote as-is. But don't you ever regret it, just close your eyes and takes lots of pictures everyday with it. You will still be very happy.

And if you are keeping, 18-200mm will not be on your camera 50% of the time, because you will love the 50mm AF-S 1.8G (not this AF 1.8D) so much that 18-200mm will be just zero % on the camera.

16GB SD card sways your vote? haha.
Good camera and price, but since the successor is coming out soon, I would wait and just get the new one if I was in the market for one.

I got mine (body + 18-200 VR2 + bag) from Costco little over a year ago, for $1700. I had a D50, 18-55mm, 24mm, 50mm nikor lens before this. I mostly stick with the 18-200 lens because it's just convenient, but otherwise use 24mm. Nice set, but it's kind of heavy compared to the D50 that I was used to. Then couple months back I also got a white Olympus xz-1 ($200). I still need to read the instructions for the xz-1.
