where to order DishNetwork

[Bob TeaTow]

Is it best to order from DishNetwork.com (official site)
or from some reseller? Who's is currently offering the best deals and/or incentives.

Your mileage may vary... but I had a good experience by finding a local retailer. The advantage to me there is, they honor whatever the best deal Dish has and I have a local person to contact if I have problems. I also got to choose someone based upon a recommendation so I had a good idea of what kind of install experience I was going to have.

That's not to say you can't have a bad local experience OR that you can't have a good Dish-directly experience. But I liked having a little more choice in the matter by picking my installer.

There may be a deal due to what a local cable co is offering. Calling Dish Network directly will not be able to give a deal combating the cable deal, the local retailer would be able to. As well as being able to confirm exactly what you are getting on your initial setup and to have site survey done before install really helps you be prepared for your service.
