This is not a reflection of the bikes but the company. This is my story.
At the beginning of May i decidied to order my PX Pro from the AmFlow website as there was none available in stores around Australia anywhere and the expected delivery date changes every day to constantly be 6 weeks till delivery (see attached screenshot from today).
2 weeks after I paid AmFlow IN FULL $14000, i managed to find a dealer that managed to get a PX Pro in my size. So I promptly requested a refund via the AmFlow web site and within 30 minutes my order was changed to “Refund Processed”, and the fine print said it could take between 7 and 14 business days. (Which is crap as banks in Australia dont hold onto your money for any reason and I was told IF it was sent it would be in my account by the next business day)
Anyway, I waited the full 14 business days and then the emails started. First AmFlow kept telling me to chase my bank as that’s where the hold up is. Then after another week they finally admitted to an internal glitch that caused the initial refund not to go through.
So for the past 3 weeks AmFlow keep stating that the refund has been made but still nothing in my account.
I have been advised by retail people that the Chinese are terrible to deal with when it comes to money, but I won’t go into those issues.
My issue is I paid $14k for a bike and these bastards won’t give me a refund, so, ironically, I can go and buy an AmFlow.
Be warned, just wait till they are in stock and buy from your local bike shop, although I have heard that with a lot of other brands moving to the Avinox drive system Australia won’t see any bulk new bikes arrive until 2027.
I thought I was doing the smart thing and buying direct like I have done with other high end bikes.
You have been warned.

Yeah, buying directly from Amflow or directly from a Chinese company is something I would never do....no matter what.

Mmmmm well unfortunately it looks like I’m not getting my $14000 back and I have no other option but to go public and warn other people. But I will be happy to delete this post when the money is refunded

This is monkey Business, go to the Press and state your case, also contact consumer watch.
That is below everything, I am happy I never considered anything from Amflow or DJI e.g. Avinox.
They should pay you Interest on this money which is with them till now!
 
Whyyyyyyyy. Your comment about dealing with the Chinese can easily be addressed by paying with PayPal or credit cards. I have never had issues with any Chinese company by doing that.
Yeah it’s all easy in hindsight but would have and should have don’t get me my money back.
 
No direct payment to account
Why do people do this, when the default option on the Australian Amflow website is Paypal ? Are you wanting issues ? I have never not used Paypal with Chinese retailers, and have never had a problem.

When they know that Paypal will charge them if they don't either deliver the product, or refund the money. They always do the right thing.

Anyway. The message is "Be Warned" or "Use Paypal and Relax".

Doing the smart thing with a direct payment, instead of Paypal ??? That was the exact opposite of smart.

Again, would have and should have means shit to me now
 
As an aside, Amflows are very cheap in Australia. That's only £7330!

Hope this is resolved soon. 👍🏻
 
Sei sicuro che qualche truffatore non abbia clonato il sito Amflow e hai mandato i soldi ai truffatori?
 
Keep us posted. Amflow / DJI aren't some rinky dink company - they'll sort it out but it sounds like its gotten stuck in the process somewhere.

It may be because you paid by bank that is causing the issue - there are more checks that need to take place for international bank transfers than a simple card refund. Not your fault, of course - there should be better communication.

Yeah cheers for that, they have admitted that they has been a major internal glitch so I have no doubt that I will get my money back but maybe being Chinese there are a few more things that need to happen on a government level before they can send money overseas.
I was wondering if AmFlow was a big company and I guess it is. For sure I should have moved some money around and paid via PayPal but at the time I was committed to the direct purchase.
