Skyvision is buying 4dtv receivers. See http://www.skyvision.com/pages/4dtv-buyback.html You should be able to sell LNBs, dish movers, feedhorns, etc. on ebay. If they have any Birdview gear (dishes, hardware, receivers, etc.) that stuff has a big following. There isn't a market for VCII descramblers anymore, as there aren't really any analog scrambled channels still up there and those descramblers are no longer being authorized. Sometimes the higher end analog receivers have a bit of value such as the Chaparral Monterey series and some General Instrument receivers. I collect some of the early receivers such as STS, KLM, Birdview, Luxor, Drake, Chaparral, Channel Master, DX Antenna, and a few other brands.
