Default $40 Government coupon program is over: How to save money on converter boxes now
Now that the coupon program is done and people no longer can apply for $40 dtv coupons, thought I'd start a thread on where to save money if you still need to buy a converter box for cheap.

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices - Buy a used converter box for about half the cost of a new one, but make sure you take the time to research the seller and view their buyer feedback.

Amazon.com: Magnavox TB100MG9 Digital to Analog TV Converter Box, Silver: Electronics -Check the used options on he right side of the page, there are a few selers selling the Magnavox-TB100MG9 for less than $35.00

Amazon.com: Digital to Analog TV Converter Box (with Analog Pass Through) ATVC102: Electronics - The Airlink ATVC102 is not the most popular or highly favored converter, but the used section here as them for as low as $29.98

I was expecting a pricing war this weekend between converter box retailers, but may that won't happen until 3 months from now when everyone's coupons have been used or expired.

Yes, the end of the application period isn't going to be as significant is the point in time when the last coupons expire.

However, do retailers really have so much stock that they need a price war to move it out?
