Will the seller take it back? Just guessing but the repair costs may be way more than another body would cost. These don't have much resale value, but repairs are high.

Correction: These are cheaper than I thought. Walk away from it. http://cgi.ebay.com/Nikon-N8008-35mm-Film-SLR-Camera-Body-N-8008-NR-116893_W0QQitemZ350304723583QQcmdZViewItemQQptZFil m_Cameras?hash=item518fc9e27f is a N8008 that sold for $31 with a 30 day warranty. Shipping $9. You would waste money sending your broken one back to the seller.

shipping cost more than everything else :)
auction (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200428134849&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT)
2 Nikon N8008 Film Cameras for parts or repair
A couple of N8008's plus books. I know the non-s is semi non-functional. It also has a crack in the mirror housing. The LED display seems to function but other than that I have no idea. The s model has no visible damage, but also I'm unable to determine if it is functional. The LED display functions on it also. Both sold as is. Note: the body cap pictured is not included.
and he forgot to mention mf-21 databack, extra finders, etc.
haven't found anything wrong with the N8008s
not bad for $ 10.50 + $ 10.70 shipping priority
