DB800 prices???

[mholali]

did a google search for DB800 boxes and i was quite surprised at the range in prices. the lowest was £220 and highest was £430. a bit strange for me. am i missing something?

One word mholali....CLONES...any 800 you find at that low price is most definetley a clone, lots of mixed reactions towards them,search this forum..

If your after a real one buy from a good company
that advertise as genuine dreambox and will
take it back if its found to be a clone
dont pay £400 for a clone Take Care

Even at that price be very wary...there are a lot of dodgy sites out there claiming to sell " original" dreamboxes....Have you considered other types of Linux HD box? do some research, there seems to be a lot of competition for this market. I have just recently purchased the Azbox HD and am quite pleased with it..still in Beta stage but it does what I need and is half the price of the DB800..
