I actually ended up ordering the Mavic only though DJI direct. I was going to order from Newegg but the status has been 'out of stock' for a few days now. The strange thing was B&H actually charged my card when I placed my order... maybe because I ordered some other stuff with it? Either way I had to get that amount refunded, which was no hassle, the money was pack in my PayPal account later that evening. I asked them if I were to switch my order from the Fly More Combo to the Standard if I could retain my position in line and they said no, so at that point I knew I was not giving them my $. I order almost all of my camera gear from them and this really makes me want to second guess when ordering stuff from them in the future. I might start sending some of my money elsewhere due to their lack of customer care. Either way, I am excited for those who have gotten their Mavics and will continue to wait, because if I had it now I would want to take it outside in this Wisconsin weather anyways... lol
I have also ordered a bunch of stuff from B&H over the years.. Camera's and otherwise. Who knew this would happen. When I initially placed my order there I didn't even consider that they may have gotten a bazzilion other preorders as well.. I knew they were a DJI Dealer so I figured it was a good choice. I don't think I have ever ordered anything like this from them that had this combination of low supply and high demand to have had the possibility of this many backorders. Discovering this thread really helped me to realize I had better get a different plan together if I actually wanted to get one of these any time soon.
Yeah, its going to be hard to have the self control to no go outside and fly it when it comes regardless of the weather. (I have thought the same thing.)
