Company established in Shenzhen China in 1999. Boxes all look very cheap, suspect clones.

Worth a try for 65 squid. He used to supply Zeus, the proprietor of Dreamboxmagic. They are definately clones.

Ive already bought from them, got it last week. good quality I must say and worked 100%. Was delivered by parcelforce and not customs. The 2 boxes where priced $12 each also which was a nice touch to be sure

Was bit concerned myself, but as I paid them via credit card/paypal, I knew I was covered if anything went wrong. At those prices hard to beat. Just did a bit of playing on their site and if you order 12pcs works out about ?55 a box...man dreambox are so cheap now.

Its coz they are clones m8 you cant get orig boxes anymore Dream dont make them.

One really has to be concerned about the quality of the components at 55 GBP a box is all I can say, heh.

You could look at it another way and say how overpriced the dreambox is from original suppliers. And if they did not charge so much people would not buy the clones.

I bought one about 2 months ago to replace an aging dbox2 works fine quality is fine, no issues works better than my only dbox2..
mine was deliveried by DHL with 3 days!

[billy_boy786]

thanx for the replies guys. just ordered a couple, lets see what happens..

They have a referal system, I sahould of gave you my email address so I would get money for you buying stuff! hehe

Or better still, it may be benifical if the owers of the forums give out their email on dvbseller.com so whenever I buy anymore they can get paid for it?? Better someone benifiting from it then noone in my eyes.

The post takes up a good chunk of the price, better to buy a few together if you have mates who want them. They are the same as zeus's. I know 5-6 people with zeus boxes that are all fine. One did arrive broken and was replaced. Would not fancy having to send stuff back to China. Chinese customs are an absolute nightmare, especially electronics. Dunno if they do need to go back to China if DOA.

Ruprect you got me worried now about returning it if faulty! So spoke to dvbseller customer service just now and asked if it is faulty, whats the best and cheapst way of getting it fixed.?

He replied saying:

"If it is a mainboard problem, a lot of customers would just return the mainboard only. It is very easy to remove the 5 screws and the mainboard. As this makes the item much lighter, the returning costs is minimal and we shall just replace that when recieved. However you must get an RMA number from your account on the shop."

Then I said:
I would be worried about breaking any warranty on the box by removing the casing?

His replay: "We make the boxes and give you 12 months warranty on all parts of the unit. We will will honour that."

Seems ok to me to only have to return the faulty board if it goes faulty

i've been buying from here for a while and never been charged by customs, nor have i had an issue. all clones, but the market is full of clones isn't it?

Bought a 500c and 500s, arrived last week, about a week turn around from order. Both are flashed and running fine, time will tell, but then at ?55 a piece thats a nice price.
