Ordered The Extended Warranty (ESC) for my D90 via Amazon, but it was shipped from Cameta Camera. Amazon price is $30 cheaper than Cameta itself - great deal. The ESC form sent to me states you need to mail the form within 10 days of purchase date and given the camera itself won't arrive until 8 days after purchase ( therefore I won't have the serial until then ). NO fear - please note the following from the Nikon USA Corporate Site

Nikon 2 Year Extended Service Coverages

The purchased ESC form must be completed and mailed in as indicated on the form and a copy of the form as well as the original proof of purchase should be kept for future reference. Contrary to what some of the forms indicate there is no "10 day" limit on mailing the ESC form. As long as the ESC is purchased and the form submitted within the first year the ESC will be valid.

I was looking for an exteded coverage for my newly purchased D90. There are basically two price options for this item. One is for $80 from few sellers. There are others like Portable guy, Shutterbug etc for $40. The one for $80 is a new ESC certificate with D90 printed on the form. Where as the other $40 ESC certificates are from the older version cameras like D70, D80 etc. The manufaturer's part number are same for both the items. When I called Shutterbug, they mentioned that they had old ESC certificates that were now allowed by Nikon to use it on D90. Since these forms do not have D90 listed, I added D90 with my pen.

Cameta offered this product for a Nikon D90. Paperwork did not support this claim. Service representative at Cameta stated just to write in Nikon D90 which I did and mailed in. Hopefully Nikon will honor this if their are problems with this camera. If so, then this was a great deal.

There's nothing like the peace of mind that comes from having a manufacturer's extended warranty on an expensive piece of equipment. This is a great price for the warranty - compared to the Nikon price.

The cost is lower than just about any out of warranty repair service that Nikon would perform. Well worth the cost for 2 additional years of piece of mind. I would recommend it to anyone buying a new Nikon Camera. I have purchased one of these for each of my camera bodies.

Generally I don't buy warranties but advertised price made it worthwhile.
I wouldn't have bought it at full price.
