    They are the figures I was given b4 they decided they did not want retail selling them IE 75 + 25 from Sky and approx 40 profit on box sale. With current exchange rate it does seem like a rip off but unfortunately the trade price in UK amounts to 399 euro approx incl vat at 21% so I dont see anyway to discount this.

    The Sky+ set-top box costs 399.00 (EUR), standard installation is 75.00(EUR) for Sky digital subscribers. The Sky+ subscription costs 15.00 (EUR) a month for the recording facility and 20.00 (EURO) for your extra subscription for. Sky digital packages start from 19.00 (EUR) a month.

    Please find package information below:



    This is a direct quote i presume that the 20 eur is for the mirror sub
    The price in the UK at the moment is £199 for box
    £50 for install and £10 for Sky+ sub £15 for mirror sub
    £199 = approx 260 eur why the extra 130 eur
    the UK Sky+ sub= 13 Eur
    Do you think they will rip us off yet again

    Theyre able to take the money off us for the regular Digiboxes well enough.

    I'm mystfied why the Sky+ did not launce simulanous in ROI. It is in their own interest. Someone has been incompenrant.
