You need to contact the seller (good luck.. most wont respond) and ask whether it is imported (grey market) or warranted for usa market

If it is a "gray market" item than there is NO warranty. There is no such thing as "valid in Japan" when you reside in U.S., period! If this item has U.S. warranty than there is a warranty, if this item has no U.S. warranty than THERE IS NO WARRANTY!

There is basic one year manufacturer's warranty. However, it is valid in Japan. If you have trouble for it. Round-trip shipping will occur. It will be paid by the customer. In the case of initial failure. After the arrival to the product and is valid within a week. I will ship new products. Or I will give a full refund. After delivery, one year warranty from one week will be the manufacturer's warranty.Japan Shop SAMURAI MIND

Check out Tamron's website. They offer a 6-year warranty on all their lenses...parts and labor regardless of where you buy it. Just have to show proof of purchase (original invoice). Don't know if this is true for grey market as well, but worth a phone call to Tamron.

Honestly, there are some available on ebay with buyer protection (but I understand why you would want to get it from the above places instead). The 70-200mm is a great lens, but if you have your heart set on this particular lens you should wait to get this one :) I just ordered one from ebay but I did my research on the seller first.

This is a grey market item. Canon will not offer any warenty. I have one and have had no issue with the lens for a year.

Hi, thanks for your question. I'm sorry that you were charged more than you thought you would pay for the lens. In this situation, I'd suggest contacting our Customer Service Team directly as they will be able to see your order and if it was ordered from a seller or directly from Amazon.com. Here's a link to our Contact Us page:

The Lens came with a warranty card and everything necessary to register it. Additionally, I received a $100 rebate from Tamron... This was NOT a white box item.

Yes it comes with a lens hood and a Tamron warranty is 6 yrs., longer than any other maker.

Not that I know of. It was sent from Focus Camera in an opened package, but all warranty documentation was present, indicating that it is was a grey market lens.

The Tamron 90mm macro lens that I purchased through Amazon came with a USA warranty. It was not a gray market item. Some dealers may or may not sell gray market goods but a reputable dealer should give you the choice.

Yes, my order did. I was very pleased with the whole process. You will love the lens.

Holly if you ever need something on short notice, I've used a website called BorrowLenses dot com several times and absolutely LOVE them!! SUPER reasonable and a good source to try something out first before you buy. I rented both my 70mm-200mm 2.8 and my 300mm 2.8 canon L series lenses from them from them before I bought them here on Amazon.

The lens that I purchased was a new one. Having said that it arrived in perfect condition and I have taken so really incredible pictures with these lens. It has become my second fav lens. Also keep checking because Tamron frequently offers rebates , I received $75. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the information. I was using a Canon 28-135 IS USM as my walk around travel lens and loved it until it got stolen in an airport! :-( Now I'm in the market for a new lens and I'm leaning towards the Tamron. I've used their lens in my past photography life with my old AE-1 Program and I'd LOVE the 18-270 if I can swing the $$$. I'm hunting eBay as well, as that's where I got my 28-135 and had NO problems with it at all!

I think it should be compatible for that model but I do not have that model. Just be aware of Tamron's poor customer service. They over charge and do not guarantee their repairs at all for used lens.

Tamron makes a model for the Sony ... I would recommend that you check their website. By the way, I still love my lens !

Hi,I am selling this lens for my friend who is a photographer. He was the only owner. It is in excellent condition and it has never been dropped. The lens I am selling is the Tamron SP AF 35-105mm F/2.8 aspherical lens (I mentioned that on my listing). It has the original box and cases.Ron RitzerMillburn Philately LLC

You may be able to buy one, but Tamron won't give you a warranty. Amazon should take it back if defective. Believe you have 30 days, but check. There is really not much that can go bad on a lenses, it either works or it doesn't.Mine was used, and it works fine.
