Are old directv receivers worth anything?

In some cases, a perfectly good receiver or DVR (like a DIRECTV H21 or HR20) will be yours to keep because it’s too old to refurbish. At that point you should feel comfortable selling it at a fair price, since there’s nothing wrong with it and it can still be used in any current system.

Can I buy a directv receiver on my own?

Yes, you can buy a new receiver and buy a new card for it (something like $20). Beware of buying receivers on ebay and anywhere. Most people lease receivers and don’t have the rights to sell them. DIRECTV will not activate a card for a leased box that is not with the original customer.

Yeah, you can sell it. But they’re everywhere and unused. So people can get them for nothing.
