Default Starview the Box PVR inc. 300Gb HDD

Hi all,

I've just upgraded to a Eurovox 7000HD from a Starview the Box PVR. The Starview is an excellent box but is now surplus to requirements and I have decided to sell it.

It's been kicked of ebay once and now I'm not sure where to sell it. I wanted £110 for it (including the 300Gb Hard Drive, remote and RF adaptor). It has a couple of minor cormetic blemishes, but they are only minor, otherwise it works perfectly, it's currently set up for TW in the midlands and has the latest firmware (no manual code input required). Does anybody have any suggestions as to where would be the best place to sell it?

Many thanks
Geowulf

Could be difficult getting that sort of money for it as all the irish boxes have had their channels turned off.
Its likely to both flood the UK market with boxes, and put people off buying incase the same happens here.
Also a new one is only about £100 i believe (obviously without HDD, but they are cheap enough these days).

JMO,
Peter
