Sky boxes for sale
ChrisW - 13/6/08 at 04:43 PM

Got a few Sky boxes for sale. All good used condition, so they have minor marks and scratches but nothing unsightly. All have been tested and in GWO.

Prices include postage to UK. Knock a fiver off if you want to collect.

Thomson 4214 - £35
Thomson 4210 - £35
Panasonic DSB30 - £35
Grundig GDS3000 - £35
Sony S760U - £45

The Sony is the one that's raved about (or rather used to be, it's been a while since I was into this kind of thing). It has the optical audio output on it.

I assume these will work well with Freesat, but I've not read much into it so not sure if you'll need a card to do so. I tested them with my regular Sky card.

EDIT: None have remotes, and only the Sony has a power lead (as it's 'built in'

Cheers, Chris

These won't work well with Freesat. In fact it won't work at all on these boxes. If you want Freesat you need a proper Freesat box which can handle the high definition channels and access the Freesat EPG.

"Freesat from Sky" will work though, although you'll need a card to access certain channels.

I'll take them all off you but not at those prices! Do they all come with correct working remote & power cables? £90 cash for the lot & I'll collect?

You can have all but the Sony for £100 cash, collection only. I regularly sell boxes for £30, and I don't think a fiver postage was excessive. Was intending to 'Parcel2Go' them anyway at £7 a go.

No remotes or cables with any of them, except the Sony which has the power cord built in.
