Scam or not, pay the extra and get it direct from DJI at the DJI store. I have bought three different drones directly from DJI. No problems before or after sale. And no, I do not work for them, just a customer.

So the seller sold 25 brand new Mavic Mini packages for $45.99 each including free shipping from China.

You can't find 1 new battery for that price.

I'm jealous - I missed out -NOT!

Wouldn't eBay cover you if it is a scam? I agree it looks too good to be true. I wonder if they're actually selling just the camera and the rest of the images are just "noise".

I think it's a scam. I also founf a mavic 2 pro "brand new" for $29.99. Yeah, right. But at the same time, if you use ...., you should be able to dispute it if you don't get what was advertised. Still, thats money tied up for a period of time if it turns out bad, which it more than likely is.

Sure it would but it cost us all in fees not only on eBay but .... as well.

They are stupid suckers, since there is 0 chance they will get it. Only idiot would think otherwise.

none of us here have actually made this particular purchase, I don't think.  the question I asked has to do with activation and I guess I'm asking if drone's can be flagged so activation does not occur and therefor the drone can't fly.  is this something to be on the look out for?
