So which part am I not allowed to talk about: the remote price, Ebay, or URC policy or all.

I am just noting that on Ebay which I use as a rough guide of street value that the MX-850 (my favorite) remote NEW is selling for so low that I am going to take a big hit on selling my extra one. Guess where I will be telling friends to look for their next remote.

As a customer it's great. I honestly don't need to bash URC's policy. Anyone who has been on any AV forum knows about it.

Final point - It makes sense that these are indications of a product line being dropped or discontinued.

Any other ?'s about my inner motivations can be forwarded to my Mother and shrink.
