My first inclination is to run away. But these guys have pretty solid feedback. Is this an eBay storefront for one of the big NYC camera stores?

Non US authorized dealer with no warranty card in the box; if you want to take that risk, then it is a great price.

Besides the warranty, which I don't feel is that big a deal as the seller is providing a one year warranty, it bold says body only. Does that mean there are absolutely no accessories in the box, as in a battery, an AC adapter, etc?

I always feel if it's too good to be true, it is.

I'm pretty positive it has all accessories and body only means no lens.

You may be able to find the English manual for $15 in eBay or KEH.

No, I don't mean the manual. A long time ago, in a Galaxy far away, I bought a Panasonic camcorder from a seller in China. The only menu offered in camera was in Japanese. The nomenclature surrounding the buttons, when it wasn't a +/- were also Japanese. I did know that before purchase however.
