Hi.

I know this is not HR20-specific, but I'm hoping someone can answer this.

If I have an old D* box to sell, do I leave the inactive access card in it, or do I make the buyer get one from D*?

Thanks.

Take the card out..
99% of the time, the Access Card is no good to the buyer

Something somewhere in your contract says you can't give or transfer an access card to anyone. [as far as I remember]

I've sold a number of old D* STB's, always left the access card in it (after making sure the box was deactivated by D*) and never had any problems or complaints from the buyers. Just sold my old HR10 and a SDDVR40 with a Weakness 120GB upgrade on E-bay yesterday for $485.

FYI Tivo Series 1's with lifetime service are selling for $200+ on ebay due to the ability to pay $199 for lifetime service on the Series 3 which is no longer an option.

Anyone with an old Tivo should check it out since most of us here have no use for them. You can sell the Tivo, upgrade the standard D* box to the HR20 and still come out with $100!
