wow the day I plan on ordering the upgraded version the price jumps... That's amazing
WHY?????

There was pre-warning on this forum from other members......    regular users spotted that days ago.

But hey, they got to pay for that R&D dept.... plus its Xmas and they expecting some big sales.......

That's the problem, I feel they have become complacent with their success and are headstrong on sales rather than support...repairs etc....

My Advice, buy from a dealer and choose wisely, you will be primarily "dealing" with that dealer with any issues.
I would not buy from eBay etc.. although DJI have distributed products for sale to various sources, they require proof of purchase, dealers credentials etc.. on any warranty claim and purchases of this type just add more red tape to the process.

It would be nice if they honored their previous price

Try shopping in different countries......  you may be suprised...

You can still get a Phantom 2 Vision Plus with extra battery for only $1159 here.  Lowest I've ever seen.
