Keh's "ask for" price is $1,895.00. MSRP is $2,200.00.

See:

So unless B.D. can produce "New in Box" Nikon F5's with full Nikon US 
Warranty from a reputable source for about $1,200.00 he is, as usual, 
completely and utterly full of it.

BTW B.D., $1,895.00 is not "about $1,200.00, it is "about" $1,900.00.
