Did he say this after your requested him or he himself said this? Is it an SD or a HD STB? VK seems to recently sell HD STB too at this rate due to many LCO's waiting for Arasu to get the free STB.
In VK Website he had pricing infos that said all SD & HD channels (except sun network HD) at Rs 199+tax but LCO's are offering all SD channels at Rs 250 and all SD+HD (except sun network HD) channels at Rs 300.
Our LCO has told us not to get any STB as he can neither refund the amount or replace the STB for free when he changes the MSO which he thinks is imminent before Dec 2017 or even by Aug/Sep 2017.
Though i think the LCO loots the customers by super hiking he packs, i think its still a nice pricing for so many channels. I wish i get all SD channels at Rs 250 and HD channels (except sun network HD) at Rs 300.
