I've tried using EBay. Is that the cheapest? I can't even get an EBay account because of something abouty browsers and cookies.This is driving me insane. Everyone seems to have them but I can't get it (
I bought mine (sagem )off someone on ebay who offers a reflashing service, I contacted him direct via his website,i'm not sure if it's allowed for me to put the link on this site? i'm not a techy myself and just wanted as near as poss to plug and play. The afore mentioned person only lives a few miles from me (West Yorks) so I got him to source a good box and install the software. I then picked the box up from him and he gave me an instruction sheet telling me how to scan for channels, easy- similar to updating a channel list on a freeview box via the remote. The box has been ok, freezes occasionaly but is cured buy turning off and back on again, not really a problem. Had the box for 3 weeks now. Hope you get sorted. Dunx.
That sounds ideal. The guys I bought it from have done a runner and stolen all my hardware. I also got them from EBay. So I am very reluctant to get involved again.
Thats part of the reason I was cautious, i've been scammed for small amounts on ebay before, but to be honest I think it's the exception. Good feedback is the key, and plenty of research, if you can find someone local you can use thier knowledge to help you set up- and if they don't deliver what you've paid for you can always go round and get your money back ;0)
I sourced mine from a very good dealer in Germany - when he ships them sends me tracking number to trace and gets here within 4 working days. I have also ordered another 4 for friends and family from same guy and again no problems. where are you located (I am in West Yorkshire) - may have a spare box avaialble if you are interested
Hiya In west Yorkshire just like Duncan on the board! I'm in London. The guys I bought it from have NOW returned my call-They are telling me that to insert a new tuner takes four weeks and they need to send it back to Germany. I was furious with them. They are supposed to offer 2 years' guarantee. Do you knowanyone who can fit it for me? Preferably in London Thanks
you can buy the tuner off ebay and if you know someone who can solder then its straighforward to replace the tuner.. do you have a mate of family member who can solder... you can buy a tuner for about 30 quid I think if the box has to be sent off to germany then expect a 14 days to get it back.
