RC Pro 2 US Options?

[skycam509]

Has anyone successfully purchased a DJI RC Pro 2 controller in the US recently? I've seen posts about getting them from China and Korea with import fees included. Also, I don't live too far from the Canadian border. Has anyone purchased one up there and brought it across the border? What is the cost to do it legit? What are the risks of smuggling it?

I know there will be no warranty, but if it works as well as all my other DJI gear, that will not be an issue.

I know B&H and Adorama are offering it on preorder, but is there any indication that they'll ever get them?

RC Pro 2 is still in short supply everywhere because they are needed for the Creator Combos. I doubt you can even find one in stock anywhere in Canada.

Best way to get one legally is to order the Creator Combo from Adorama. That's how everyone else here has gotten one, complete with DJI warranty.

Risks of smuggling are forfeiture of the goods and penalties up to twice the value of the goods, as well as revocation of Global Entry, if you have it. Best to declare it, if you manage to find one for sale in Canada. Customs fees/tariffs appear at present to be 55% of the Canadian price, based upon one Canadian DJI dealer's US delivery surcharges for a Creator Combo pre-order. If the Canadian Dealer isn't billing you for Customs Fees separately from your purchase price, expect a big bill from the shipper to cover them upon delivery to you.
