Has anyone ever heard of this place? After a little searching, I think they
may be connected to this place www.starlightcameras.com

There are so many suspicious things on that site. Here's a couple:
"[returns] permitted within 7 days from the date of purchase"
Not date of receipt of goods? If it takes more than 7 days to get it to
you, tough.
"Weight (without battery): Approx. 21 oz without battery,
memory card, body cap, or monitor coverd70s$429.00"
That could also be interpreted as the price without all
those items.
"Despite our best efforts, a small number of the items on
our web site may be mis-priced"
Hmmm.
You know what they say: " If it sounds too good to be true it
probably is"

Read the disclaimers.
It's either "gray-market", i.e. non-Nikon USA and impossible to get
warranty service on if it breaks ...
or ...
it's bait 'n switch.
