I had a Mavic 3 Pro fly away. They sent me a DJI baseball cap with the replacement and then called me to let me know they were sending an email with a link to a Mav3 Pro battery. Free. No reason. Anyone else (other than influencers) gotten such things out of the blue? The battery is still on it's way but I have a tracking number now...
 
Did the replacement aircraft come without a battery?
If so, that explains why they would still owe you a battery.
Otherwise, you got the second battery unnecessarily.
 
The replacement came with a battery. They are just giving me a cap and a battery because I'm such a cool kid. They called on the phone to let me know they were offering me a "coupon" for a battery and of course I said, "sure...thanks" thinking it would be a $10 off coupon. They confirmed my email address on the phone and the email I got didn't clarify it but it gave me a web site to order a battery but that link required that I have a Canadian address. It did show the battery would be free but I could not order it. I responded to the original email thanking them but explaining I was not Canadian. My replacement drone with a battery and free cap came from Canada so I thought I was out of luck but DJI responded with a link that worked for me. My free battery was to arrive tomorrow but I will be out of town and delayed the UPS shipment. I think this is, at the least, quite unusual but perhaps it's also unusual to have bought 9 DJI drones over the last several years. I still have 8 of them but sold one of them. That's why I posted this...just curious how unusual this is. Ordered a Mav4 Creator from BH but who knows when/if that will actually be available. My eyes are wide open on that order :). Humorously since I got a Mav 3 and then the Mav3 Pro I already have 6 batteries but when I go out for a long day of shooting like I did for the Bison video I recently posted I am constantly charging two batteries and a 7th will be just fine with me. The Mav4 batteries, however, are really spendy....so if that order does come through I doubt I'll ever have more than 5 but I do need at least that number during a long day of flying.
