Last night I finally got tired of waiting on my Mavic order from Oct 8th. So I did a spontaneous thing... I ordered the Phantom 4 Pro from Amazon. Earlier today I got the text message from Amazon telling me that my P4P was shipping and would arrive this Friday, 12/02/16. During the day I was joking with a friend or two that tonight I would go home to check the DJI website and find my Mavic Pro had also shipped. I was telling them that if the Mavic did ship I would probably just ebay it and that would pay for part of my P4P purchase. So I just logged in like I have done dozens of times since October the 8th and I find that my Mavic has just shipped.

Too funny, right?

Now I have to decide if I should sell the Mavic or keep them both. Suggestions or advice would be welcome. I have the disposable income so that is not an issue but like several times in the past decade I have had other hot items that were in short supply which I could have capitalized on. The best memory of this is when I preorderd the X-Box 360 and when it arrive one daughter was telling me to open it so we could play games while the other was telling me to ebay it.

So should I keep this Fly More Bundle? I am tore.

Doubt you'll ever touch the P4P after the Mav arrives.

I never want to go back to flying the Phantom, like driving a truck versus a sports car.

You could avoid the eBay fees and sell it to me.

I would keep them both.  From reviews I have seen the P4P has a little more advantage over the Mav. And now that more and more Mav's are being shipped out I think that cash cow has passed.
But then again with all the crashes that people have been having maybe not. .
I would keep both.

I ordered the P4P, then purchased a new "in hand" Mavic from Ebay and it arrived a couple of days ago.  Just got the notice today that my P4P shipped too.  I'm keeping both as I will use them for different jobs.  The Mavic will be my go to travel drone (including overseas and motorcycle trips) as well as in town back up, the P4P my in town heavy lifter for jobs.  Loving the Mavic - it is very cool!  
Good luck!

You should keep them both, P4Pro is the best machine out there for the money ,it basically has a flying SLR, 20mp 1 inch sensor, it is streets ahead of inspire 1 x3 or x5, it has so many goodies attached, it's unbelievable,
Mavic is also a great machine, although camera is not nearly as good as P4Pro it's the portability of it you are going to love.
I also purchased both my Mavic arrived yesterday and P4Pro arrives tomorrow, I was going to keep my P4 until I seen P4Pro sold it to by P4Pro , they are both very different drones, and if you love droning you will use both.

Just think now you have both, you can put them up in the air together and set one to active track the other fun,
And just like Conor McGreggor you'll have two titles. Lol

Thanks for the advice and the laughs. Too bad Conor's girl is pregnant. After they stripped his belt I was hoping he would drop back to Featherweight to KO Aldo in the first round again then fight Khabib!
My Mavic arrives 12-06-16 but has yet to hit NA so it may be sooner. The P4P arrives tomorrow sometime. Going to ebay to check the postings and sell prices for the Fly More Bundles.
Hopefully I can sell the Mavic and the profit will pay for most of my P4P then turn around and order another one or the Mavic 2!
Edit: I was delusional and had forgotten the amount EBay and PayPal take from your sell. Think I will just keep them both. Not worth the hassle to sell it most likely?

Just a quick update... I sold my Mavic Pro Fly More Combo for $1,900.00 + $53 shipping on eBay. Loving my P4P but may have to return it if I can't figure out the camera issues I am having with it. Flies like a dream though.

I think all Apple stores except US have given up on the Mavic. I've had one on order with Apple UK now since Nov 10th with no updates on my order. Although the quoted delivery date was 29th Dec - 12th Jan, being a company like the mighty Apple, I expected it to be here way before that.
Maplin in the UK appear to be getting daily deliveries and sending them out to new customers yet Apple don't appear to be delivering any to customers. Apple UK is a joke.
