2 Tuner HD PVR Special

I believe that will be the permanent retail price everywhere, from beginning of next month.

99% sure...

Do you think there is any point in me flogging my 4 tuner and getting a 2 tuner instead?

If you don't use 2 recordings then not a bad idea, otherwise get a 2nd HDPVR if you don't already have Xtraview
The 2 tuner is definitely faster & more capable going forward
 
So anyone know what a decent asking price is for a 4 tuner black HD PVR with 6 into 2 splitter, remote eye and a spare remote would be?

Depends which batch its from, are the last 5 digits of the serial more or less then 80000? (its the number under the decoder that starts with P30....)
 
That's the first batch, if its really slow & hanging you could get it swopped out for a refurbed unit, if you lucky it might be free, otherwise R342

I want to sell it as I have a 2 tuner PVR now, what's it worth?

A Decoder care contract will allow anyone to swap it out.
 
Yeah but the buyer doesnt nessasarily have one, if you have a DCC I would get a swap out & then sell the refurbed unit. (Exactly what I did, sold to a work colleague for R1500)
Normally I'd say about R1800 / R2000, for a 1st batch decoder though around R1500 but doubt a buyer would know that
Add maybe R200 for multiswitch and R150 for remote & TVlink

Cool, I was looking for around 2200 all in. I will get it swapped out anyways. I'll make up a story;)
 
Dont even know the difference between decoders :eek:

I just bought a HD PVR 2P from HiFi corp, is this the latest? Same as the pic on Makro's site.

Say it had the "Power cycle your harddrive" error on the screen ;)

Will do that, this one has actually behaved. The 3 or 4 I've had before it always lost the settings I applied. Things like information display time, remote commands etc.

I needed to reset them every 2 or 3 days.
