It is real, but you don't have to bid on it to find that out.

Nope! It's against TiVo's rules. And now that I've reported the seller, the 'buyer' will certainly risk their account being suspended. ;)

And how does Tivo know who the buyer or seller are?

edit: I meant just buyer.

And how does Tivo know who the buyer or seller are?

From the referral?

[greg_burns]

But those are public links?:confused:

Edit: oh, you are talking about the OP still paying for this information on ebay. He is of course allowed to use the links I provided and not give anybody a referral <wink> <wink> <nudge> <nudge> :)

I used the free Tivo offer greg_burns linked to and got my first Tivo a couple of weeks ago.

TiVo can assume, but they can't know who the buyer is.

One thing to keep in mind is that these free TiVo's do not qualify for multi-service discounts that you may already have.
