Worth buying a refurbished Phantom 3 standard?

[cowrider350]

I found a seller on Ebay that is selling them for $329 refurbished. The seller is also an authorized DJI dealer, so is it worth it for the $170 off?

Considering the cost of the battery alone, it seems like a pretty darned good deal to me.

Most people in this forum have had good experiences with buying refurbished Phantoms. The thing I most often see is the Phantoms appear to be like new. And, to top it off, you'll get the same 1-year warranty as a brand new Phantom since you're purchasing from an authorized DJI dealer.

I would buy one, as above, you get all the benefits at a reduced price.

I bought a 2nd hand 3S off ebay (uk) for £260 and it came with 3 batteries! Works perfectly.

I get this out of mine with a pair of windsurfers. I am in an agricultural setting.

I bought one and I’m very happy with it! Go for it! It’s a great way to get started in the hobby!
