# DJI Mini 5 Pro drone (1-inch sensor, sub-250g)

The single biggest legit electronics arbitrage in China right now: at home in Shenzhen it costs ~$670 with stock everywhere, while US buyers face scarcity markups near double that.

Price: 4788 CNY (Official China launch price, drone only; Fly More combos ¥5,988-7,688. Seen as low as ¥4,309 with domestic subsidies)

Where to buy: DJI flagship stores (Shenzhen HQ store at OCT, Beijing, Shanghai) or official mall counters — instant tax refund available

- Buy at an official DJI store for warranty + the 11% (~9% net) tax refund on top — Huaqiangbei stalls sell drones too, but flagship price is already the real price
- Check YOUR home country first: India travelers should not buy (import prohibited); US travelers fine under 250g
- China-spec firmware is region-unlockable but geofencing databases differ — factor it in if you fly abroad
