Is this a good price or sound dodgy not off flebay but off a website. think they could be clones or genuine. Check em out at cableandsat_com

At that price m8 i'd say there clones.

The price certainly seems too good to be true. Can't see anything on their site to say all their boxes are genuine. On the other hand they do claim to give a 12 month warranty on goods sold.

HMmmmmmm

1 Year warranty will be no good once you install "your" firmware

lucky13 · 03-07-08, 03:05 PM

That depends on your supplier m8. I buy mine from iwantabox and only ever had a problem with one - the first thing they insisted on was that I had the most uptodate version of the software installed before they would look at it. I did and they did and they replaced the faulty tuner.

Hi i bought two starview thebox for 110 inc delivery i thought they might be clones but they are not i made all check to find out if they are clones these were of a website as well

jimbo · 03-07-08, 06:02 PM

they wont confirm if they are not clones, i think they are, eeprom chip can be replaced a firm does it at the moment and they look 100% genuine but there not, as jonpc says once u install firmware warranty is invalid.

Talk bout taking the p1$$ - putting a nice red bow on the box (12 month warranty) knowing that the first thing you'll do when you get the box is take off the bow

Keep to the reputable sellers
