They probably had that D2x sitting there for a long time.
The D200's are awesome image making tools. I'm back to using mine again
after a few months shooting film.
Why someone would want a D2x for several times the money is beyond me and
I'm sure beyond a lot of people.
A real curiosity. Some one buying one. Someone using one.
They look kind of sexy. I'm sure they're very nice. For people who kind
think of ways to get rid off tons of excess money.
