It's likely Pixel Hub is not a licensed dealer however, they likely developed this store name for eBay purposes only. They may in fact have a brick and mortar location in NY operated under another name that is in fact an authorized dealer. Not sure if anyone happen to notice the original location of the seller was Rockaway Park, NY, now they're showing as located in Hoboken, NJ. The deal is legit and no one should second guess it. It doesn't matter how many they have or how much they paid, just a good deal that no one looking for a P3P should pass on.
So I've been following this thread and waiting to pull the trigger on my first Phantom. The eBay deal of the day sounds good, and if we can believe the other posters, the bird seems legit. Newer motors and C controller, et al.
My questions may be silly or naive, so bear with me. You buy a P3P for $799+tax from eBay, then you should buy spare batteries (from DJI) at $150 each, two recommended, then you buy spare props, being a newbie pilot, at $6 a set and of course you want a hardshell case ($150) to carry all this stuff around. For an investment of just over $1200 with tax.
I see bundles listed in Amazon that have 2 batteries, a hardshell case, spare props, and some other extras for just under $1300. Are these bundles not the real deal, or are they older models of the P3P?

Really wanting to get this P3P from eBay but having trouble justifying it based on the Amazon bundles.
as far as bundles go you would have to ask each individual seller, but I'm sure they are just trying to up sell accessories . For me 799$ eBay deal was that $799-no tax. Genuine Dji smart batteries are 125$ on Amazon

So 799+250= 1050 for phantom 3 pro and two extra batteries (3total) no tax for me with Amazon or eBay
A case is solely based on ur needs and taste . I've seen 30$ -1000 cases. I have the oem Dji hardshell backpack and it works for my needs . Fits the p3p 4 batteries multiple sd cards, iPad mini 2 and sunshade , windsurfer for RC , extended landing gear risers, and a bunch of other nick Nacks and accessories. It's a tight fit and had to cut away some styrofoam but holds everything securely and safely . I got mines with a promotion Dji and most vendors were doing at the time , buy a phantom 3 and get the hardshell free . Doubt I'd pay 150 for it being there's better out there at the same price point but for the free .95 , works for me
So 1050 and u need a case. spend 50-100 and u still under 1100-1150 for brand new p3p and accessories.
Thanks LamboH, I'm in NY, the Land of Taxes, so eBay has added tax to that sweet deal. I'd be OK with the hard shell back pack, so I could carry it on my motorcycle. I'll look into the batteries you suggested. Waiting for an item I'm selling on eBay to sell and then I'll pull the trigger.
Yea that sucks on taxes. At least you're in the same state as the eBay seller , you would get it next day or two days at the latest. Just check the eBay ad and he has less than 10 left
The oem hardshell would work great on a motorcycle I think. ( sold my zx6rr last year. The shoulder straps are adhustable and there also a strap across your stomache/waist that's adjustable too
That is an awesome deal..................Wow. I just bought my Advanced back in December but when I saw the Ebay deal above I went ahead and bought the Professional too. Just couldn't pass it up. It will be quite a while before I even entertain the thought of a P4Best deal I've found. Waiting for a reply about the warranty.

I got the p3p and just out my p3s on eBay. Already have a bidding war going on. I will keep my extra battery and give every thing else up. After flying the pro. I love it. Still glad I got the standard but wow he pro is incredible.I'm really tempted to go with this deal. However the P4 is tempting. But.... I already have a case and 3 batteries for my P3S, so I'm not sure I want to start over with the P4. Ugh... wish this wasn't too tempting.![]()

Well I thought the same util I flew out 12k the other day. Still at100% video and rc. And I used goggles with it. Was incredible. So can't really compare the standard to pro to be honest. I'm using a San disk card. On sale now. At Best Buy. 64g class 10. Gets about 200 mins of video.I know I enjoy flying each weekend. I look forward to it. The standard has done me well. That's why I'm not sure if the upgrade is that much better. I did get the P3S from Target's "fire sale". So I really didn't invest much into it. I know I can sell it for more than I paid for it. It's more if I want to upgrade or not. On a side note, what kind of media (sd card) are you using? My SanDisk Extreme Plus crapped out on me. Thinking of going with a Samsung this time. How much video will I have on 4K with 64gb?
