FYI - 301 Refurb Receivers direct from Dish - $49

[928gt]

Talked to Dish tech last night to confirm my Sunday 811 install and to make sure installer has 2nd DP34 needed for my add-on. Some how discussion was brought up about 301 and he told me I could get 1 or more refurb 301s for $49 installed free.

Not sure if this is a an"exclusive deal" or not so YMMV !

For those with older Legacy receivers considering getting Legacy adapters to enable them to upgrade their dish system to Dish Pro may want to consider this as a lower cost alternative.

Pretty cool that you can get a newer more modern receiver for less than an adapter !!!

Who says Dish doesn't take care of their customers?

Nice first post

At $49 it is a heck of a deal considering its Dish Network and they retail for $99. Do they charge you shipping in addition to that and limit how many you can order?

That was with FREE install (more switches and goodies) so no shipping charges .

I was told I could get 2 at a time, or just one if I wanted.

Decided to hold out for the "exclusive" customer deals coming on the 322 instead (hopefully in a few weeks).

This deal is probably no different than getting a special customr discount on the 510 or 811.

Hurry and buy up these 301s, so Dish will release the 311.

Yes, exactly what the tech told me, they are dumping the last of the 301s, mostly refurbs are left.

FYI, when I signed my dad up for the 811/301/301 deal I was told it would be retailer discretion as to whether I received 311s or 301s.Was told if I did the deal directly thru Dish it would only be 301s.
