I'm looking to buy a Mavic Air 2. Is there any benefit to buying directly from DJI over, Amazon or Best Buy?
Oh I had planned on that, I'll thank you now.Get the AIR2 flymore package!! Thank me later.
You will almost certainly have better return options with Amazon if the drone is DOA.Is there any benefit to buying directly from DJI over, Amazon or Best Buy?
Thanks, that sounds a lot better than the DJI refresh program.I went with Best Buy for my Mini, and purchased the Best Buy extended warranty. 4 months out I had a water landing. The drone seemed to work fine after it dried out but I know after that it was a time bomb. So, I exchanged it with the warranty. What the CSR at the store did was had me pay out the pro rated portion on the warranty I had used (4 months) and restarted the warranty from the exchange date. So for about $30 (guessing) I had a brand new drone and a full warranty upon exchange. He told me just make sure you have a least part of the drone with you or the warranty can't help you, so no fly aways. I double checked this with a second store and was confirmed that this is their policy. To me this is awesome and well worth the extra cost! Check it out before you buy, might be well your time.
Drone insurance is also a better buy than DJI refreshThanks, that sounds a lot better than the DJI refresh program.
If you want the drone today, get it from Best Buy.Is there any benefit to buying directly from DJI over, Amazon or Best Buy?
I'm not certain. Perhaps the warranty only covers the defective portion. But that's exactly what the guy did. He pulled a new package from inventory and swapped out the damaged part.How did they do that? Steal the AC from another package? If so it wouldn't have mattered to them if they exchanged the entire setup or only affected parts.
theyll just send the defective unit back to the company for refundI'm not certain. Perhaps the warranty only covers the defective portion. But that's exactly what the guy did. He pulled a new package from inventory and swapped out the damaged part.
Until you get that scarf caught in the props, then it might really be a no brainer.. ?I found the gift promotion worthy of going through DJI. I wanted another SD card anyway, and with discounts it basically gives you the fly more combo price but adds free refresh, 128gb sd card and a scarf to help you survive hypothermia. A no-brainer.
