But I have just picked up a D810 for £200 - has had the lens mount snapped off but enough of the mirror box front face remains to get a replacement spring and mount correctly aligned. The camera has arrived so I just wait for the spares to turn up.
I have black structural methylacrylate glue which will reconstruct the missing parts and secure the mount screws in their holes. If that doesn't work out then I can get a replacement box and have the fun of swapping it all over - full dismantle - I will try and avoid that if I can
Testing with a spare battery shows everything else is OK and it has a 73k shutter count.
