Hope you just didn't get burned. Usually stuff like this is to good to be true. Just read some of the terms of agreement, shady if you ask me.

It’s a scam, obviously. You will never see a drone or your money.

The thing is I do not think you will get it; it all looks fake to me.
Not sure Best Buy would link to another vendor when they sell it for $899 ~ Call them and ask?
I would watch your credit card/bank account very carefully... and be prepared to start the chargeback/fraud process.
(May also have to change your card # too... these kind of scams are usually after big bucks not $99 of them.)

Looks like Best Buy got hacked, they do not sell third party, I would get with your bank and or credit card company and stop the transaction immediately.

Yeah I Googled "Best Buy Website Hacked" and got a ton of what appears to be stories of breaches of user accounts and credit card info.

It could have been a targeted ad on the bestbuy website that isn’t affiliated with them.

As the old saying goes, if it's too good to be true, it's because it is.

I have to say that i'm with the majority of the folks here.  It's likely that's not a real deal.

I've seen Mavic Air drones supposedly for $79 - 119.  but when you click on the link you get a choice of what quality camera (720p, 1080p, 4k).  Obviously a scam.  I just chuckled and kept moving.

I hope you don't lose too much.  And possibly, even get yourself a drone.  even if it's a knock-off, if you get something, it will be better than nothing.  Just know that it's not an authentic DJI Mavic Pro.

If you have paid by credit card and get nothing delivered it should not be difficult to object to the payment and get your money back. And I agree with the others, this offer can't be serious. I have also inspected their website a bit. No company information, no address or other contact details etc. It heavily smells...

I can’t believe people still fall for stuff like this.  Drop what you’re doing and call your credit card company now.

Mind posting Best Buy's webpage that has Link leading to Mavic Pro at $99.

Cause after looking at Best Buy's webpage, and searching Best Buy's webpages using Google, nothing comes up.

did you see ANYTHING on the site?

I copied the link and tried to access it from one of my 'burner' machines that i don't care if it gets infected with things.

The page opened as blank.  no information about anything.  not even the drone that is supposed to be for sale!

Saw the ad yesterday morning. Did some due diligence as I didn't want to miss it if it was legit. Website was reported to be "safe" and found no scam reports or complaints.
I crossed my fingers and ordered...
My card was declined!
I knew it wasn't a balance problem so it made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
I contacted my bank and was informed that the merchant was declined due to fraudulent activity and my account was frozen by their security system.
DEFINITELY DODGED A BULLET!
You may be able to get your card company to do something but I would assume the worst and act accordingly...everything should be traceable, even the account that your funds were deposited in.
Good Luck!

Funny I went to the site on Thursday and saw for $99 and then on Friday for $49 so I bought one. I see now they are $0.99?? I'm going to wait about a week and then we'll see. I know I'm probably waiting for something that will never come but you never know... there's always a chance.

At the time I was only looking for a Mavic Air vs Mavic pro comparison and got their pay per click ad--saw $99 and clicked on it. I got an email with an order # but like the other person said there's no way to know who or where it might be coming from... At the time I thought 'even for $500 I wouldn't do it but $99 bucks and then $49 I had to give it a try'
