Get to hit two salient points with this:

I bought a good-bargain Nikon-refurbed CP5700 from B&H. It arrived
quickly and in a "factory-sealed" carton. The LCD monitor was ok for
about ten seconds, then went all wonky, looked as if it had been
pressed with a heavy thumb, or some such. I called first and then
scooted over to my local factory authorized Nikon repair center
(30-mile round trip) who 1) Agreed the thing needed warranty repair;
2) Said they had instructions from Nikon his own self not to do
warranty repair on CP5700s 3) Called me a liar when I said I'd called
first and been told to come on down.

Mr Nikon (three levels) and Mr B&H (two levels) got an earful, you can
count on that. I think B&H was victimized by Nikon.

The Used guy at B&H seemed sincerely sorry, not to say mystified, and
told me to send the product back, insured, and they would refund all.
I did and they did. They stopped selling Nikon refurbed CP5700s, for
as long as I was interested anyway. I bought a new one for about 15%
more than the refurb price, from a local store (time pressure). It is
still cranking out great photos in my granddaughter's hands.

My complaint with B&H was that they should have known to tell Used
purchasers they would have to deal with the Nikon factory for warranty
work, even though the paperwork in the box gave the procedure and
address for a local repair facility.

I don't expect B&H and dealers like them have the resources to check
the function of every refurb item they sell, and wouldn't expect them
to. I _would_ expect Nikon to confirm the functionality of every item
they ship as "refurbished". I'd expect Nikon to include correct,
accurate information regarding warranty service in the box, not tell
locals to deny service to unsuspecting purchasers.

Of course the guy who called me a liar may have been a liar himself.
Any case, Nikon heard about it, B&H heard about it, and now you have
heard about it.
