Mavic scam?

[speedbird1984]

I've just bought a mavic pro for £400 on ebay today...anyone have any ideas if this is too good to be true!?
The seller has lots of buyer feedback but no seller feedback. Item listed as new.
Thanks.

If it's a scam don't worry you will be protected by ebay. Sound too good to be true.

The eBay page has been copied and pasted from another site. My own opinion is that it will be a scam as it is less than half price. The seller purports to be an authorised dealer but a quick check on DJI dispels this claim.

That link works and it is e-bay. Not a fake as far as I can tell. 15 sold today. Some people are making multiple purchases and multiple quantities. I suppose it's possible the account is hacked and the money is going somewhere else.

You're protected only if you use PayPal. eBay.co.uk – fulfilment on eBay

That's 50% off. Can't see how they can do it.

Controller included?

When listings get pulled like that it's usually due to someone reporting it as fraudulent. When items are sold-out, they typically don't get completely removed and the item number hidden. The listing stays up with the big ENDED or SOLD-OUT across the top. Hopefully speedbird will give us a full report as he was one of the buyers who bit.

Controller included?

Yes!!

Welcome to the scammed club! Ebay is rife, simply rife, with scammers now; how the bloody **** do they think anyone is daft enough to fall it these days?

Fingers crossed Speedbird1984 gets his money back.

Just received a legit e-mail from Woot. They have the Mavic Pro for $765 stand alone - $945 for the bundle. Woot is owned by Amazon.
DJI Mavic Pro Drone or Fly More Bundle - $944.99 + $5 standard shipping

I have been selling on eBay for a while now, and in my experience when a listing is removed by eBay it's because of fraudulent listing or selling items not allowed by eBay.

I reported it as potential fraud. It came down shortly thereafter. I doubt it was just one report. They most likely had several already.
