Does that include dji clones? I have a look alike that has gps and full gymbal cam onboard but its aee not dji

This is a sales ban

Meaning, if you have it, you can do what you want other than (re)selling it?

Im not going to sell it because i use it to inspect my roof after a strong storm front coming over it

Yet another case showing how useful drones are.

I use mine to check if my solar panels are dirty or if leaves/branches have fallen on them, and I used it to take photos of the roofers' work when I had my house reroofed.

Lot safer than climbing a ladder and stomping around up there potentially creating more damage

You can even sell it on second hand market I believr. This is more of a "don't inport it because you won't be able to sell it" and is important to companies.

Right. Because after you buy it, it is your drone made by DJI and not DJI's drone.

Guess some of the laws still have their premises correct.
