Yeah I guess that's shipping time from China, oh well,  let see you may be lucky and get them all together a bit earlier. I bought a nice MicroSD card + cool landing pad, makes me want it now!!

I ordered the snap adapter... looks like you can actually attach lego to your Mavic Mini. I've seen the drone can carry a payload, the app has some settings for it too. Can't wait to try that one out.

Same 15 days of shipment though.

Probably is the ship time from China. And it's 10:13 PM there too so it probably won't even get looked at for a while, LOL. I say that, but I'm just adding to my anxiousness of getting my MM. I think I've contained myself quite well actually

I'm passing on this one. $17 extra for shipping.  Hopefully Amazon gets them in stock sometime.  I wonder if this will degrade the life of the battery by having it on at all times.  It will be a waste if you only use it to charge it.  I want to display it 24/7 and show it off to everyone.

Shipping to EU €28 so $31 but it’s free shipping if you spend €380 , free shipping in EU at the beginning of the year was if you spent €149 why jump this up by €250 , shysters is all I can say, there have been no major increases in shipping throughout EU no hike in extra taxes , maybe we are now paying US TARRIFS lol .

I dunno man, it was $17 USD to ship. I thought that was outrageous for shipping, but it's probably coming from China so...

No no money lol Since we're both kinda near Memphis,TN i wanted to see if they (FedEX) sends them there first and then on to us just for grins is all. My order shows the same info as yours does. I've already got my Mini and it came through Memphis,TN so these should too. Your Mini should come through Memphis,TN?

Whether mine comes through Memphis depends on how they ship it I suppose. Coming from that side of the world, it probably will come through Memphis.  You had a couple day lead on me on your MM order though and that is my problem with that. I didn't order until 11/1 instead of 10/30 like most everyone else/

this is ridiculous.

not going to pay $17 shipping so i piled on a bunch of other stuff to hit the free shipping limit because ultimately i know i'm going to need more batteries, etc.

the amount of money paid to dji is ridiculous so i guess i'll get it out of the way now.  i just hope prices don't plunge for bf and make me regret buying now since it so feels like inventory is scarce/restricted.

and i haven't even yet rec'd my combo.

thanks op for the head-up!

Shipping prices are crazy to Europe too, better wait for Ama\on or else to have them 24h fee shipping.

I problem. I know some was looking to get a charge base and batteries so as soon as I got the notification that they were available, I posted it to help make others aware.

Man, still processing? I'm glad I canceled and ordered from somewhere else. Hopefully you'll see some movement soon. On the brighter side, maybe they'll have most of the bugs patched and the authorization zones fixed by the time you get yours.

Its nice to see another Kentuckian on here. I'm about 80 miles south of Lexington, in Somerset.

They weren’t prepared at all. It really seems they care more about retailers that their one on one,
If you can call it that via web store, customers. I talked to chat support and estimated ship dates is 12/05 for the charging base and 12/06 for the fly more combo.

I ordered the charge base soon as I got the notification that it was available too.

Hopefully I’ll see some movement pretty soon!!!

Hey!! Somerset!!! Been there many times for the somer nights cruise ins!! Love the old cars!! I’m hoping all the bugs will be out by the time I get mine for sure. I’m from Floyd county, Prestonsburg btw.

I think that looks a very cool device and would look good on a shelf. I have the fly more combo and the included charger is very good and you can charge in a car or from any USB Charger. It is a bit slow however
but 3 batteries last a very long time with this drone

That's what I had in mind. A display case. I think it'll look good. Even though my car is outfitted for charging a lot of different devices, I hardly ever charge anything in there. I don't know why either. I probably just don't give it much thought. I got the fly more combo coming myself. I can hardly wait either. Have you been enjoying yours?

I got my Fly More Combo from my local Microcenter since most if not all online retailers are out of stock.  Because of that, everyone is making them run low but it seems like they are restocking some stores.  I might consider getting the charging base and another battery whenever it is on Amazon.  Im always used to 1-2 day shipping with Prime.

Wouldn't it be easier to buy the Fly more package? $100 more at time of buying the mini and you get the charger base and two extra batteries (and the prop guard) and no extra shipping charge.  Of course I benefitted by buying at my local DJI store (Troy, Michigan) so no shipping at all. Not rubbing it in, just for your info.
