I can remember when direct TV first started up we could Buy from retail stores a package that included the receiver, Sat dish and all necessary wire's etc,etc, ( do it yourself kit ) although I'm sure all of them were upgraded after a year or 2, certainly wouldn't be seeing them turn up at thrift stores theses days, Folks stopped buying the kits when Direct started offering to provide and install and give free service ( for a committed contract of course ) ... in the past year or so they offer to let you take your equipment with you and they will come re-set it up at your new location, Though many people have changed to HD & DVR receivers so I'm sure direct has no use for all that old equipment and let their customers despose of them the best way they can,
