dish net 510 DVR

This is a cool satellite box. We decided to buy it because to buy a DVR box thru dish net can be costly. When you get a box on ebay make sure that you get the RO# from the buyer and call dish net to make sure that the box does not have a prior balance due on it otherwise you will have to pay the balance before you can activate it. Also make sure that the box comes with the card, if the card is outdated, that is ok because dish net will send you a replacement card to update the software in the box. If you have the warranty attached to your dishnet account and the box you recieve will not activate properly, dish net will replace the box. All in all, it is a good deal! I don't know if dish net will replace box w/ the warranty if you are not a current dish net customer, this was the experience that we had with dish net and we have been with dish net for about 5 years. Definitely make sure that the box comes with the card and I would also recommend getting a new reconditioned box verses a used one. However it is a matter of choice and what you are comfortable with. We have bought both used and new reconditioned, the used had to be replaced since it did not come with a card (also, had to pay $49.00 to get a card for the box but since it did not have the yellow card, it could not be updated to the current software resulting in the replacement. Dish net also refunded the cost of the card.)The new reconditioned box came with the yellow card, dish net updated the software and sent an updated card. The price between the two were basically the same. Another bonus is if you buy your box off of ebay, you don't have to enter into a contract with dish net for your service.
