Pre-order and Shipping Times - Who Will Get the Mavic First?

[Vineshk]

I've had an updated ETA from my Retailer here in New Zealand for 21st Oct. Last week they told me 27/28th October.

6:35 AM, Monday morning at DJI HQ in Hong Kong. Hopefully we'll have a new update provided by our reps sometime during their Monday workday. We're hoping the factory has been busy over the weekend!



Over the years DHL has definitely been DJI's most frequently used carrier but as a of late, a lot more is going with UPS and FedEx. At least for us, any shipments containing batteries are shipped by UPS but I know that is not true across the board.

The last couple of orders I have received direct from DJI came FedEx.

PB Tech Buy the DJI Mavic Pro Drone, Vision positioning paired with GPS and GLONASS... ( DJI Mavic Pro ) online at PBTech.co.nz

Seeing more and more people on Instagram with Mavics makes me mad I don't have a plug [emoji29]


According to DJI's official twitter, they began shipping on the 15th. Order statuses should be updated soon if it shipped.

I just got off the chat with sales dept and she told me that no Mavic's have been shipped out yet?

You can put me down for the following time: 2016-09-27 10:37:17 (PST) I bought direct on DJI site...

At this time the only Mavics that have been shipped are the pre-production units to product testers and reviewers that were sent a couple weeks ago and demo units to select authorized dealers. The production units have not yet begun shipping.

Yes, exactly. That is what I meant. Regular customer order have not yet started to be fulfilled.
Of course many "Pre-Production" ones have been shipped, hence all the review videos on Youtube!
Thanks

Hoping to have some new information by our morning here in the US (after the Monday workday at DJI HQ in HK). Everyone keep in mind that DJI is not going to rush a product through their production unless they know the product is 100% ready to be ran at near capacity through their factory. They now have years of experience with product releases and are going to put a high-quality, well manufactured product into our hands. Although this may only be a result after a delay or two in production resulting in Mavics getting into consumers a little later than anticipated, it will still be an industry leading product. Patience will pay off

Can this be right? From twitter

Tomorrow hopefully we will know what's going on.

I ordered from DJI through Amazon on 27 September at 12:10 EDT. Add me to the list.

By no means can we confirm if that's true but we do know that DJI Support (@DJISupport on Twitter) is US based here in CA while DJI Global (@DJIGlobal on Twitter) is their HQ in Hong Kong. Could simply be a miscommunication between the two divisions when DJI Global is saying at the same time on their Twitter account that no units are shipping. DJI Global is most likely going to be the more accurate source but simply what I would read into it. We'll just have to wait and see. So much anxiousness! haha

Now it's tomorrow. Funny that even more we are the ones moving dates.

Just ordered mine on 10-16-16. Maybe I will get lucky and DJI will ship out using the LIFO method.

Shipping Updates:

B&H - unknown/refused to give any details. They are closed for a Jewish holiday until October 26th so the earliest they would ship out is that day. Update 10/13: They have now updated their page to say that they're shipping at the end of October. Update 10/14: Inquired about my order placed 9/28 via chat and the CSR said "I have looked into this for you and currently your order is estimated to arrive at our warehouse by 10/28. As soon as we receive it in stock we will ship your order to you, and e-mail you with the tracking information. I apologize for this delay and any inconvenience it may have caused you." so as of now, B&H are getting their Mavic stock on October 28th.

Drone Nerds - They will not receive their stock until mid-November.

Best Buy - The manager at a local store didn't see it on their list of upcoming deliveries this week, and their website still says they are shipping out October 31st.

Atlanta Hobby - "DJI has not given us any concrete shipment dates. DJI first stated that shipment should start around the middle of October however we are hearing rumors that date has been pushed back. I'm sorry but we just don't have the information to provide any specific dates or details on this product shipment times."

Drone World - Heard word directly from DJI that the release date has been pushed back and they will not ship out until early November. They weren't sure if this was just for them, for all resellers in general, or for ALL preorders.

DJI - According to a chat, they will only ship Mavics ordered within the first two hours of Sept 27th on October 15th. Orders from Sept 28th onward will be shipped mid-November. New chat mentioned two days instead of two hours. Confusion abound.

Newegg - Webpage says it will be shipped 10/25.

Apple - No definitive dates, just 'November'.

Post your retailer, order date (PDT if possible), and ship out date when available! Let's see who receives the item first!

Dates are in PDT.

I am only including the time of those ordered on launch day.

Don't forget to get back to this thread to post your shipment date as soon as it is available.

 

[A_Chemist]

Chat just gave me the same generic answer and said that no units have shipped. Patience will certainly pay off but it sure does suck. Haha

It's a little known fact that the more often you refresh the order info page, the faster the item ships.

List updated.
