h10-250 price for long time sub

[johnml]

i just called directv on getting a h10-250. the lowest they would go was $499.00 + $20.00 delivery + $60.00 for a OTA antenna. i asked if this was the lowest price they could offer ( it was ) i told the CSR at customer retention that someone is selling info on how to get one for $199.00 or less and he told me that offer ended a long time ago and it just wasn't possible ? i asked why the H10-250 was so much with the expected release of the mpeg4, the only answer he could give was that the price would probally drop then. i even asked if my commitment was up ( it is ) and he wouldn't budge. maybe i just got a difficult CSR ? any ideas ? thanks -
i guess somebody up there doesn't love me ??? maybe I'll just call and try again ???johnml@bellsouth.net

Yes, call back and ask why other customers are being able to get them for $299 to $350. State firmly but not rudely that you don't like being treated differently from anyone else.
