XM Radio on ebay

And free shipping. I have no connection to the seller, the product or any sheep that are whining out in the fields...

I priced one at Walmart at $50 to compare. The fine print on the rebate form on the ebay site says the rebate is not available for purchases at retail stores like Wally World. Unless I read that part wrong. You must purchase at least 6 months service. The fleabay seller has a 99.5% approval rating.

Just thought I'd share what sounds like a good deal on a new radio.

alot of times you can call XM directly at 1-800 XMRadio. Ask them what kind of specials they are running for new customers. Alot of times you can get the equipment for free, but you have to pre pay 6 months of service, but you were going to have to pay for service anyhow, once you buy one, so a pretty good deal. I've gotten 4 radios for free over the years by doing it this way. Worth a try to see if they are still doing it.

Too late for me. I pulled the trigger on this deal. But maybe the next guy can try... thanks for the (future) tip

I wonder what's going to happen now that Sirius is buying XM. Will they support both networks or require everyone to buy Sirius hardware? Anybody know any more about this?

The XM site has a merger info page. They clearly state the XM systems will not be made obsolete. They apparently still have some FCC hurdles to clear in the merger.
