In stores, the VRII retails at $2150 + %14 taxes. I was supposed to get it from Nikon with our special pricing at $1741 + %14 taxes. But they wont honor additional orders and this offer was terminated.
So i've hunted for a nice deal on ebay and found one in Australia at $1200 shipped; but for the VR version; the one in stores is the VRII version.
The cheapest I could find in american territory were around $1500 - 1600. And since these are out of warranty, I didnt bother opting for a grey market (non-us) lens since I have plenty of indie shops that will gladly work on it if anything happens.
