That's a pretty phenomenal deal for a new U.S. warranty camera. I paid $1600 for a gray-market version (which you should only consider if you have a strong stomach for risk) in 2015. It is an amazingly capable full-frame body. It was actually extremely well-featured at its initial introductory price (around $2300) and still has (my opinion) no close competitor in its price range.
I suspect that this move suggests that Nikon is planning to replace this model soon. Lately DSLR upgrades, with a few exceptions like the D500, haven't added significant value, so this sale provides an amazing opportunity if you were ever interested in an FX camera but were put off by the high price of entry.
