My guess is there is a larger number of VIP's and companies requesting units and that has reduced the regular Joe units pushing you down on the list. Think about it this way when you see VLOGER's getting them before they are released and that VLogger looses his first unit and they send him another someone is not getting theirs on time.

My guess is that they rushed the announcement of the Mavic Pro to kill the Karma, that announcement coming WAY before they had production figured out and ramped up. That, coupled with a vast underestimation of demand and DJI is now in a world of hurt. And taking many loyal and would-be-loyal customers with them. Is my guess.....

It looks like everyone who received one so far ordered directly from DJI.

Vetteman999 · Oct 28, 2016

Well it was cheaper than ordering from dji direct so I guess it's worth the wait.

Is it true that Best Buy is cheaper? Bestbuy will charge taxes, DJI doesn't.

Best Buy and DJI should be the same price before tax. Maybe the OP lives in Delaware.

You should see health insurance in the US. I guess that's our payback.
