TiVo employee Premiere sales contest discounts?
Any informed opinions on whether this
http://sfbay.craigslist.org/eby/ele/2466325408.html
is even remotely legitimate?

I can get you a brand new TiVo Premiere box with Product Lifetime service + Free TiVo Slide remote for $399.00 with no tax, Or TiVo Premiere XL box with Product Lifetime service + Free TiVo Slide remote for $499.00 with no tax and if you want any other accessories you get %25 off as well. Normal price TiVo Premiere XL is 300 + monthly service fee, add another $400 for lifetime service, This is a $700 value. I work at Tivo and we are having a competition on who can sell the most Tivo's, so you would be ordering directly from the Tivo company meaning you get a 30 day return if you change your mind. It can be used with any comcast cable tv service.

Well, Google shows that phone number is for Empire Elite Limos in Burlingame, CA, and online reviews of that company are, shall we say, "mixed".

If it seems too good to be true....
I would think you'd be saying goodbye to your money if you respond to this - and people will!

Oh, I have no interest in a Premiere at any price, unless it's given to me free with lifetime and I can swap it with somebody for older lifetimed units, I was just looking to get somebody who knows for sure if this could be legit or not to let TiVo and SF Craigslist know about it if it isn't.
