Hi, I would like to buy a Vu+ Duo however it seems no one supplies them anymore. Satlink or freeviewnz does not sell them anymore. Can anyone suggest where in NZ to get one?

Cheers

They are still shown on the satlinknz.co.nz website, albeit with no pricing: http://www.satlinknz.co.nz/html/receivers.html

It could be a supply problem as VU+ have new models coming (The Ultimo, I think) and may have reassigned manufacturing resources. Have you had specific information from Satlink that they will not be importing the Duo again?

I sent an email asking if they were still selling them and got "no" as a reply. I see them on satgear.co.nz however I haven't heard from them. Are satgear the same as satlink?

I got mine from a guy on TradeMe:

Arrived fast, not had any issues at all and he responds well to questions after the purchase as well.

Thanks for that. I have asked the trademe guy if he has any more for sale. Hopefully I can get one from somewhere?

Tradme guy says that the importer is not bringing them in anymore. Anyone else have any ideas?
