How can they do that without more information?

They call up DJI and give them the order number to cancel. I'm not sure how it works but it happens in my shoe hobby groups.

No coupons, but I just got notification that they are adding $178 store credit to my account as a reward for supporting the P4. No idea what that is all about.

Sar, did you buy more than just the Phantom 4 at your time of purchase? They sent me the same email but I'm only getting $89. Quite a difference. My order was only for the phantom.

I ordered one P4 and two spare batteries.

I got $89 as well. I ordered the P4 an extra battery and sun shade. It's not $178 but I'll take it. [emoji4]

they are doing this for all of the early adopters because they are soon going to offer bundle deals and they don't want their loyal customers getting mad.
(Edit) I guess they are already offering bundles but these credits have been rolling out for a while.

That makes sense, but the rather random and variable credit amounts/coupons are a little odd. Must be based on something though, as I'm sure it is all automated.

Yep.. makes total sense why folks are getting $89 or $178..

Buy Phantom 4 with One Extra Battery | DJI Store

I'm glad I got the 50% of coupon.. saved me $169!

Hope it was you that used it! (I was just checking if it would work for all, I'm good on batteries).

I hope so!

You are supposed to earn a point for 10% every dollar you spend at the store.

Lucky folks. I cannot financially justify more batteries now with the cost of the bird initially but I do have one extra. But of course, two more would be enough for me too. Someday.

If you fly near an outlet buying a third battery is not as good as buying another charger. So far for my P4 I have 3 batteries and an extra charger and if I have an outlet, I can fly pretty much continuously.

Of course, I have to have an outlet.

Received the coupon for 50% as well.

I reached out to support and inquired about why there was a bundle on the Hong Kong online store and was told to wait until April 15th. There are now a handful of bundles on the USA DJI store as well.

Glad I waited and received the 50% coupon.

Two more batteries, bringing the total up to 4.

Already had three. Couldn't pass this deal up though. Picked up two. Might be for sale soon though.

Just spoke to Nabil at Multirotorheli in Canada and they have the same deal.

Excellent. That is where I purchased from. I'll check into it!

It's actually only 1%.

Multirotor is offering batteries at 50% off?

Erised · Apr 15, 2016

Sorry! If you purchase P4 as a combo same deal as dji (in Canadian dollars) but said there is a discount on just the batteries. I should get my quote from them emailed to me soon. I will keep you posted as soon as I get it.

OK, I get what you're laying down!...I also see they have a loyalty rewards program which is pretty much the same as DJI's.

Erised · Apr 15, 2016

Yep pretty much the same deal and you being from Alberta you only pay gst. (lucky you) I have to pay hst (horrible stupid tax).

Erised · Apr 15, 2016

O just Cale just saw Alberta Arizona. Here it costs 500.00 more for a P4. Plus 13% tax and they call it a free country...no not free we pay for it and it's all good.
