No interest, but why are you leaving Dish?

I used to be with DirecTV, but cancelled recently due to ridiculous legal hassles with them (they accused me of purchasing illegal cards when the real perpetrator had a different address than mine). I always liked the service, but didn't want to give them any more money after going through that debacle. So I switched over to Dish, but I have a few things that I really don't like about the service:
1) the pvr 721, in my opinion, pales in comparison to the DirecTivo receivers. The tivo software is much more robust and user-friendly, and neither my wife or I enjoy using the pvr 721 as much
2) no Sunday Ticket. I thought I'd be ok with that, but after years of having it, it's more difficult to go without it as the season grows closer :-)
3) I liked the picture quality of my DirecTV service a bit more than my Dish service. It's not a huge difference on most stations, but some stations (especially my local networks) have pixelization problems.
Probably a longer answer than you wanted, but that sums up my main preferences for DirecTV over Dish.
I love when they post ads, then don't respond to p.m.'s!

Same here. I was going to buy a 301 system for $50 a while back but got no response back to a PM or two that I had sent. I am afraid that I am going to not get my merchandise. There should be some kind of setup like ebay or paypal where someone holds the money until the product is sent so people on here can be protected more.

Sorry about the slow reply... motrac, you should have a p.m. reply waiting for you now.
Thanks!
What are you asking for the 721?

The 721 is $400, including UPS ground shipping. Please let me know if you want to purchase it asap, as I'm planning on putting the item up on Ebay either later this evening or tomorrow at the latest. Thanks!
