    I was looking to buy from them but when generally buying off the internet I do the following checks on a unknown website..

    Reviews? Found none
    Company Address? Not on their site
    Phone number? None, just email

    They are most likely selling clones based in china.. I want to buy a dreambox 500 c too, where can i buy?

      Try here.

      Accept paypal so you are covered.

      DreamBox 500C, DreamBox 500S, DM 7020S, Dreambox DM 600 PNR

      Or maybe this is just a bump to a chinese wholesaler.

          Just bought my dreambox from ebay and hes got 1 left!! I read reading about the dream box being discontinued and well they are only making the fake copy ones now. I definitely didn't want that. There is an alternative tho called the DVB Blackbox 500c that has the same hardware parts and runs exactly the same software, the only difference is that is has a higher quality phillips tuner.

          Where I found my info (dont buy from here! no address, no phone number e.c.t)
          Cable & Satellite - Cable Receivers - Linux BlackBox 500C Cable Receiver - BuyingThings.co.uk - The Online Store

          So I checked out ebay and found a seller with a 100% Positive feedback and 64 sales so I bought one box from him, hes in the UK and has 1 left.

          DVB Blackbox 500c Digital Receiver on eBay (end time 09-Dec-09 23:01:58 GMT)

          "You can also bid with the knowledge that you are getting a fully operational box that does not require "messing around" with."

          I have messaged the guy asking how he actually flashed the box e.c.t incase I need updates.

          So yea if I could recommend you anything right now just buy from somwhere reliable and you know you can get your money back if it ****s up, dont buy a cheap quality fake from china also. they wont last you very long and the tuner are very bad quality, freezes the picture up all the time apparently.
