Sorry, but its cluttering up the house, then what's easier? Just binning it, or setting an auction up? People sell them purely for money. not to declutter the house.

NTL can't do much about STBs taken in burglaries and sold at car boot sales, but if they kept a very tight regime on collecting them, and had inventory systems in place that stopped unscrupulous employees stealing them, there would be a much, much smaller supply available.
Believe me, there are systems in place....

Also, eBay should be made aware that while it's legal to trade cable boxes in the US, and it's legal to trade satellite boxes in the UK, the sale of UK cable boxes is illegal.
Err, ebay DO know it's illegal. The stbs are on their list of prohibited items but obviously they cannot police every auction 24 hours a day.
