This applies to used D1x camera as they are no longer available new. Faultless contruction and more features than you could possibly use. Pro-level features like portrait shutter release and controls. Will definitely outlive you if treated well so you could look on it as a lifetime purchase. Images out of the camera are very good but probably not much better than prosumer D70/D80 nowadays. The differentiating feature is build and confidence - this is an amazing workhorse and is a camera you won't want to change every year.
Problems:
No problem but be aware this is a very heavy camera (1.3Kg with batteries) and it is a six year old design, e.g. small LCD display, small CCD sensor (5.3mp), firewire PC connection and difficult to clean sensor (requires AC adaptor which is in short supply at reasonable prices).
