If I buy the Air 3s from Korea via eBay, does DJI provide a standard warranty if it's delivered to California? Appreciate your expertise here. Thanks

Unfortunately, the device will not clear US Customs per new regulations. Your money will be tied up and getting a refund may be difficult. This is all from what I’ve read and YouTube videos I’ve watched, not from personal experience. My understanding is that we in the US need to purchase inventory that is already in the US until such inventory is exhausted. This applies to most foreign made drones, not just Korean. I just purchased a DJI Magic 4 Pro Creator Combo (on eBay - US inventory), it arrived yesterday. Now the learning begins! Good luck to you!
 
  • Reading the most recent feedback from buyers of the DJI from the seller in Korea, they all received their units with no problems. But from reading the sellers ebay page it sounds like you need to buy an aftermarket warranty as DJI will not honor a US standard warranty if not purchased in the U.S.

    Quick shipping best seller here! Everything was as promised and packaged very nicely. No complaints. Did a lot of research on sellers for drones and this comes from South Korea I’m in the US so no issues and no Tariffs.

    Shipping to the US was under a week even with it getting hung up in Alaska due to weather. The item arrived in original, sealed packaging and is legit. The seller is very good with communication. I will do business with them again in the near future.

That's not been the case with three drones I've bought from South Korea. There are several recent threads here describing successful purchases made from South Korea and Japan.

Some DJI models are currently available at prices comparable to overseas sellers who ship to the US. Have a look at this thread.

Warranty coverage is an open question. DJI states that the warranty is honored only in the country of purchase, but exceptions have been reported.
