FS: Nikon D300 kit

Selling my Nikon D300 with MB-D10 battery grip (with battery) and 18-70 lens. Camera comes with original box and packaging (lens does not, as it's from a different kit).

The camera has the false low battery indicator issue...which is a definite problem when used without the grip. With the grip though it needs a jiggle every so often, but isn't really even an annoyance in practical use. (i used it the last two weekends to shoot 300 soccer players over 9 hours...had to nudge it twice in that period, and it literally took a jiggle so minor that i didn't have to remove the camera from my eye)

The lens is from my d70 kit, but has been rock solid. Nice and sharp, accurate focus on that camera and the d300.

All together, I'm asking $600 shipped and paypal'd. Not sure what repair will cost, but figuring the grip at $100 and the lens at $100, that's $400 for a body that, apart from that issue, is in excellent shape with ~27,000 actuations. I'm happy to keep the lens and sell the body+grip at $500, but shipping/paypal are at cost in that case.

Pictures to follow. Feel free to ask questions. Price isn't viagra firm, but it's pretty darn close to what i'd like to get. Not interested in trades at this price point.
