Hi!
You know that this is the official policy of the Israely Nikon importer - the are taking gear bought ONLY directly from them or via official distributors. if you get your gear from US (any shop like B&H or adorama) - you are on your own there... you have to send it yourself to the warranty in US or europe.BTW, Canon in Israel does the same thing...
Surely, I know that. But I witnessed with my own eye the guy buying the camera from *local* distributor (Hadar Photo).
