    I can't see this order been done now in time for Christmas either btw, so we could have a scenario where this could drag on till the new year, I'm only pointing this out from the onset.

    Might the shipping cost have been for DHL express? To ensure quicker arrival?

    I am trying to nail down a definite price, obviously I haven't spoken to ParcelMotel yet but I'm hopeful that they'd give me the same deal as previously which was €3.95 per delivery. The problem with them charging me for delivery is I'd need to know in advance what I'm been charged as if I'm going to do this I want to make sure it ain't costing me anything as I won't be ordering any for myself. I've no problem putting in the time and effort into this as long as it won't be impacting on me financially.

    €60 sent via PayPal (say €56 per device, includes €1 shipping and €4 PM charge) works out at around €62.40 that would be decent a price to pay.

    I've been in the wings here. Received a pro-forma invoice yesterday evening. as previously mentioned, I enquired into reselling a few weeks ago. €57 each delivered. Definitely worth that IMO. That was base on a batch of 16 units. I'm just too busy with work at the moment. Aquos, I see you've got the same deal on the table from them. I was adamant they would respond with a decent price plus the shipping only adds €25 for the 16 units, so pretty much the equivalent of the BF deal.

    If that deal is going ahead I will take one thanks

    They don't use DHL as far as I know, they used TNT on my original order.

    Ok, here's the last email I sent them, once they respond favourable I will start taking orders and payments. This order needs to be submitted in next 24hr if people want any hope of getting them in time, which I think is highly unlikely anyway, but sure you never know.
    Ok, I'm looking to get going on this now so I can organise getting money in from the people who wants them, this is going to be a non profit group purchase where 20+ people pay me exactly what I pay ye for these, so can we agree an all in price of €56 including VAT and shipping, I guarantee you in excess of 20 units also.

    I'm keen to get these ordered ASAP so some will have them by next week.

    Please respond ASAP

    Once I open orders, I will leave it open for maximum 24hrs for me to have received the money.

    This box is getting alot of attention from the Kodi Community at the moment and one of the guys there has done a review of it using the appnettv image on it, it gives you an idea of what the box is capable of.

    http://kodicommunity.com/the-wetek-play-review-the-device-that-has-many-faces/

    I have also heard that somebody managed to hack it to have the HDD for recording in the box itself

    I was also interested in this but have a separate kodi box and think I might go for something like "Edision Optimuss OS 2 Plus" or similar with dual tuners and built in HDD just for Sat viewing and keep Kodi separate..

    Where did you get this info, if its not removing the existing apps I wonder will you still be able to install via esfileexplorer, aptide, wukong etc. if those are already installed. It will be complicated to block these for people with unotelly and other smartdns services configured.


  • Moderators, Regional South East Moderators Posts: 9,051 Mod ✭✭✭✭Aquos76


    Ok, time is getting on now and Ive still had no reply from Wetek, I have sent them a mail again now asking for a price for 25 DVB-S2 including fast 48 hrs shipping, and Ive also spoken with Parcel Motel again and they are ready to go as soon as I am. Once Wetek come back to me, and I am happy with the overall price, I will purchase them all myself and I will then sell them for a set price and the first 25 people to make contact to me and transfer the funds to me will get them. Simple as that. Id order more except I dont honestly know how much more interest in there for more, also, I dont want to be stuck with any.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,040 ✭✭✭crabbypaddy


    Fair dues to you, you can't lose at that price anyway you can always sell them on adverts.

    It was posted on renegades group and meant to be on other Kodi groups. I don't own one, so I can't answer your query above.

    Aquos, if you want I can email you the pro forma I received yesterday. Just under €56 per box (based on 16, so id imagine that's your price) . I'm sure you can take that as gospel.

    If you currently have a skybox that displays channels, it will work. 100%.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,785 ✭✭✭jcsoulinger


    Does anyone know if this box is compatible with newcamd files?


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 14,716 Mod ✭✭✭✭Dcully

    I've just had a phone call from wetek, I'm going ahead with ordering 25 dvb s2 models, unfortunately the express delivery on these is too expensive apparently so he's saying they will be shipped tomorrow and its approximately 5 days to Ireland. The total price is €63 including PM shipping if you need it shipped, which you can sent to me via PayPal or Revolut card.

    I'll start replying to My DM's shortly. These will be sold on a first come first served basis.
