Just got an email from Nikon about another refurbished sale with an additional 10% off. Just grabbed a Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S lens for under $3500, missed out on this lens at the last refurbished sale this fall. Free shipping with 2nd day delivery.
Nikon Refurbished Sale

If you would like to post, you'll need to register. Note that if you have a BCG store account, you'll need a new, separate account here (we keep the two sites separate for security purposes).
Yes, I got the email too. It says refurbished sale for four days, which would be Tuesday (Oct 22) through Friday (Oct 25). They seem to do these often, so if you are not ready to buy now I would suggest waiting a month or two until the next one pops up.
Some of the lenses seem to be hitting new "lows" in pricing as refurbs. One example: Z 105mm f/2.8, now $665 on sale. I saw a Z 50mm f/1.2 (now gone) for $1300 or so if memory serves, lower than prior sales. Pricing seems to be softening (as it usually does) for used or refurb lenses a few years after their launch.
Great time for the patient photographer to pick up wonderful lenses!

Yes, there are some really amazing deals remaining. A 600 f/4 S for $6200? I managed to snag a 1.4x Z TC before they sold out.

Got an email from the Nikon Store. They’re selling a refurbished Z8 for $2800.
I was wavering on buying this lens at the earlier refurbished sale but delayed too long. Once I got the email and saw the 600PF was available, I jumped on it.
It appears that it/they is/are sold.
With some of these sale items, any delay is too long. The best plan is to decide on a certain price for a certain piece of gear. When/if it becomes available at that price, don't think about buying it, just do so immediately. Good on you for doing so this time. I hope you enjoy the lens, and that we get to see some of the photos from it soon.

I’m not certain this does it, but if you go to their website they will solicit you to sign up for their newsletter.
Thank you. I'll try that.

I get those emails all the time some good prices thats where i got my Z mount S lens F2.8 24-70
They have my email address but I don't qualify for NPS.
The refurbished sales are to anyone; I don't belong to the NPS.
I understand that but I do not get email notices when these special offers begin. I first heard of it hear from Capt. Spaulding.
I think you need to go to the Nikon site and signup for notifications.
