Is A Nikon D200 Too Advanced Of A Camera For An Amateur Photographer Just Starting Out With Dslr’s?

I’m seeing some really good deals on used Nikon D200’s right now because the D300 is out. I’m wondering if that would be a better bet long term than the D40x or D80 for my first Nikon DSLR because of the durability. Any thoughts on whether it would be too advanced for just starting out? Or could I grow into it pretty quickly?

How To Identify A Refurbished Nikon/canon Dslr And Lenses?

I’m in the market for a good entry level DSLR. The issue is that many dealers in India sell cameras without manufacturer warranty. This puts a question mark on the quality/legality of the product and I don’t want to get ripped off buying a refurbished product. There’s nothing that will help me avoid buying a used product but I know that refurbished products have certain identification marks. If I get to know what these are at least I will be able to avoid buying such products.
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance
