Dji purchases AFTER Christmas

[davefabik]

I recently - a few days ago - ordered a set of DJI branded propeller guards from a seller on eBay from China. Expected to arrive early January.

Anyone have info on likelihood of me actually receiving them?

You should be fine.

* as of 11pm Pacific time, Amazon still lists a lot of offers for Mavic 4 Pro, Air 3S, and Mini 5 Pro. Most are fullfilled by Amazon but are generally pretty expensive

* Adorama has the Mavic 4 creator combo and the lesser FMC but they are really expensive. They also have the Air 3S FMC, but again...expensive. They list the Mini 5 Pro offers all on backorder

* US Drone Supply has the Mavic 4 Pro, Air3S, and Mini 5 pro all listed as available

* Drone Nerds has the Air 3S FMC with RC-N3 for $1520

* At Ebay if you search for the Mavic 4 Pro and in the filters specify shipped from the USA there are still many offers. But I see some "almost gone" claims. Same is rue for the Mini 5 Pro and Air 3S

so I'm assuming parts are still pretty easy to get. But drone once the current inventory is gone in the USA it might be hard to find options...and if you do the price will likely be higher than now

I think you guys have taken the fear to the next level. They have brainwashed you that after the 23rd weird things will happen with drones, maybe a meteorite will also hit the drone warehouses too!

Be very careful of any DJI offerings on Amazon. None will say "fulfilled by Amazon." They are all being sold by third party Amazon Marketplace Sellers. However, as long as the order specifically states that it is being shipped by Amazon, you avoid falling under the worthless A to Z Guarantee, and Amazon must handle all returns and refunds, as it is then truly fulfilled by Amazon. If the seller is listed as the shipper, instead of Amazon, do not buy from them, even if it listed as Prime!

I have placed orders on eBay recently and had great service from a seller in South Korea. Mini 5 Pro was delivered in 3 days just two weeks ago and I have an RC Pro 2 coming today that I ordered on Sunday. The shipping is fast and there have been no issues getting what I am looking for. It will be a challenge for a while with DJI not selling direct in the US or supplying the normal vendors the way they have but the rest of the world still has regular access and will going forward so the devices are not gone, just harder to get.
