Was contemplating trading my MA in for the Mavic 2, but the MA is not listed as a device that they are accepting for trade-in.  The Mavic Pro is on there, as is the Spark, but no MA.  I emailed them and this was their response:

Dear Sir/Madam,

We temporarily only receive the old devices on the list. Please keep paying attention to our program in the future. Sorry for any inconvenience cause.

Thanks a lot for your great support to the DJI Trade Up Program.

Best Regards,
Your DJI Trade Up Team



What gives?

To me this is logical. MA is just seven months old and DJI Trade Up is in my understanding a recycling program for old devices.

I should think you can get more bang for your buck selling the MA, than trading it in.

No doubt that's true.  I was curious to see what price they would offer and was surprised to see that they are not accepting them on trade.  I just hope it's not because of all of the issues and they're planning to phase it out.

I saw somewhere that the trade up program is actually run through a 3rd party.
I want to believe that as the amount of credits being offered is downright stupid.

You'll do better to sell it on ebay or craigslist. Shoot, even a pawn shop would give you more!!

Agreed, but it’s like trading in a car at a dealership

Sure you get much more by sale to a friend or other looking for MA. Not worth to trade up MA with DJI.

Trade up prices are really crap, like $250 for like new Mavic or something insane.
