$400 P3A: Too Good to be True?

[SamNetwork]

NOTE: THIS IS NOT AN ADVERTISEMENT, ONLY A INQUIRY.
I saw a $396 P3A on Amazon. It was Used, but the description was was saying it was Sealed in factory box. I did a background check of the seller, and they were offering a P3P for $473 and a P4 for $770. The seller has absolutely ZERO reviews, and their username was:

Looks to me like if you contacted them thru Gmail, they would sell it to you privately, make you pay thru MoneyGram, and rip you off.

When buying Phantoms on Amazon, it's best to play it safe and only buy Phantoms that are shipped/fulfilled by Amazon or from an authorized DJI dealer.

Yes, actually if you go ahead and buy it Amazon will just cancel your order. You won't be charged a cent. Been there - done that.

But I have to say I did buy an open box P3A from Amazon for a little over $500 maybe 4 months ago. Everything was still sealed no hours on it an no charges on the battery. It was a damaged box only. It has been the one I fly mostly. Couldn't be more pleased with it.

The only problem I have with Dealers is they are usually much more expensive. I could buy a P3A for $800 from a Authorized dealer or I could buy it off of Amazon for $720. Of course you could get an open box P3A off of Amazon Warehouse Deals for $600. So....yeah.

I often find authorized dealers are the cheapest on Amazon. Stores 123 is currently selling the P3A for $718.

I scored mine for $650 posted "like new" on amazon. Great seller history. I contacted him first to make sure it wasn't a refurb and he said no its new just with open box. Even better it had the new motors. Very Pleased
