So I just bought a house and the previous owner left a satellite disk (probably DirectTV or something) on the roof. Is it worth anything? What should I do with it? I don't like paying $50 or more for TV service, so I'm looking to sell it or something. Is it of any value? It looks very new, probably less than 2 years old, since the house is less than 2 years old.

 

eat it.

 

Keep it. If you do enough research, you can actually put it to use and get many free channels.

 

How old are you?

 

Research, huh? Thanks!

If I were to sell this on Craigslist, how much would I get?

 

You wont get anything for it. Dish is no good without receiver... and chances are if someone has a receiver, it came with a dish. They are essentially disposable these days. I used to be in the home audio/video industry and I have 9 or 10 of them sitting in my garage. I'll throw them away when I get around to it.

 

Agreed. The dish is essentially useless. I just moved about 2 mths ago and DirecTV told me to just leave the dish at the old house. They built me a new one for the new house and as far as im aware, just left the old for the future owners to deal with...much like your current situation.

 

While patting your head and rubbing your belly!

 

Maybe he meant eat off it? Satellite dish...dish...eating?

 

Specifically, I meant for you to do some research on google.
