Hi kirkened, :)
Any Dish Network retailer or online retailer.
www.dishdepot.com
www.allsat.com
http://www.satellitedepot.com

Mine is on its way.....will be delivered sometime today....YEAH :)

$539 + Shipping
Enjoy it pk-rr! :D

Just remember after you hook it up and downloads it software to let it sit for an hour or more so it can download the guide.

If you don't wait you will find that the operation is very sluggish the first hour or so after you complete the software update.

Any questions about the 721? we are the place to come ask you questions!

Thanks Scott,

Wife just called to tell me that the receiver was delivered. I think I am going to go home early today as I am coming down with PVR fever. I heard it’s very contagious.

I heard its breaking into a world wide epidemic! :)

$549, and they take older switches, LNBF's and receivers for a credit, as well as a great deal on a Quad.
Sorry if this sounds like I'm pushing them, but they are very good and you asked..
I just purchased mine today $499 + 13.95 shipping. Purchased at Allsat. My first dealings with them but they seem like a very good company. Spoke with Ben.

What? It's been less than a week since I got mine from AllSat and they're already down $30? Hummm - did you order any additional channels or other services or accessories at the same time?

I searched the internet for the most reasonable price(if you call $499 reasonable). I found a site selling them for $499 but none in stock. I called Allsat to see if they would price match, after they checked my source they agreed to the $499.

I wish there was some way I could piggyback onto this deal but since I already ordered my 721 last week, it's too late. Anyway, you got a very nice bargain - congratulations!

This is the exact reason why we would never price match when we sold Dish/DTV equipment.

We stocked over $100,000 of product, which really is not that much if you actually stock all the systems and accessories that go along with DBS products, but was far, far more than any local or internet dealer had available. We always guaranteed shipping within -24- hours because we preached that it was IN STOCK and stayed true to that fact. Now here comes Mr/Mrs customer on the phone or in the showroom wanting a better price than we offered for it, saying, so and so sells it cheaper. Well, I always wondered why, if so and so had it cheaper, why didn`t the customer just purchase it from them and not call or visit us ?

Anyway, we never price matched for the one customer that wanted it because via the internet or other source, they would tell our last ten customers we gave them a special deal and WHAM... everybody was angry.

With exception of the foreign customers ( who were few and far between, beside the fact they never wanted to buy American commission able programming ), most all of the price matchers that contacted us ended up purchasing from us.

Boy this was long :p

If not, sell the old receivers on eBay, you'll be amazed how well this kind of merchandise sells! FWIW, I bet that's what Dish Depot does with their trades! :)

Bob, I traded in 2 on my 721. Mark at DD told me I could trade in as many as I wished.
