I've never heard of that before.

 

I got in on the $750 off $1499 in November. It's a great deal and there weren't any strings attached. Only thing is that Dell bumps their prices up when they offer this deal.

Also, I'd suggest that people who are jumping in on this go through a site like Fatwallet or similar that gives you cash back on these deals. When I bought my Dell in Nov, not only did I get the $750 off, I also got 3% back from Fatwallet. Lastly, if you're a student, you can also call in for the student discount that Dell offers. The student discount ranges anywhere from 5-10%.

 

my roommate was looking at one and i coulda swore that Dell was saying that..but we looked at a lot of notebooks.....

question for you BEETROOT....when calling in to order...they'll know what your talking about? just mention the $750 coupon? never ordered from Dell while using their coupons.

Thanks

 

I'm not sure if you can call it in. Tomorrow morning Dell will issue a coupon code, which you can get from www.techbargains.com, www.fatwallet.com, or any of the other sites mentioned earlier. You go through and configure your computer on www.dell.com and then on the 'checkout' screen, you enter in the coupon code and it will reduce the price of the item in your cart.

I wouldn't recommend calling anything in with Dell, they have notoriously bad wait times and overall phone support.

 

awe....making sense now. thanks man. sorry about that, having issues this morning with my comprehension skills.

techbargains or fatwallet post the coupon code pretty quick on their site? i'll be in at the 6am mark to grab it if so.

 

Yep, they should have it right at 6am.

 

If you go through fatwallet, can you use the $750 off coupon, the 5-10% student discount, and the 3% cash back? If so, it might be a great deal!

 

For the student discount you're going to need to call Dell and ask for the discount.

 

THERES ONLY 10,000 ACT FAST!

Tomorrow at 8AM Central time (6AM Pacific), Dell Home will release a $750 off $1499 coupon limited to 10,000 redemptions. The coupon code will be posted here. Virtually all laptops (except 9300 & XPS) in base configuration should be ~$750 after coupon. Prices & promotions may change from now but should stabilize around 6AM Central. Thanks usb.

Dell Home is Coming back with Famous Coupon $750 off $1499 with Limited number of uses (10000 only) on Wednesday 04/13 8am CST. So just be prepaid to grab before it goes off..

 

Dell only has one laptop that is over $1499 in base configuration.

and 10,000....is a lot of computers. Dell does an absurd amount of business if these will be used up within hours.

 

I called in, and the wait time was very fast, but the lady didnt know if I could use the code tomm, because she needed the code, but she said most of the time you cant

 

but I can customize it right, or I only get the coupon in Base Configuration?

 

So what model is everone getting tomorrow?

 

i want a 700m....

 

You can customize it. Well actually you have to, since only one out of the six or seven models has a base price over $1500 (the XPS for $2200+).



It was too late to cancel my 700m order from yesterday by the time I found out about this. Oh well, at least I'll have it by the end of the week

 

Can you return it once you get it?

 

So if i need a notebook for college next year i should buy it tommorow?

 

I can't decide between a 6000 and 9300. I configured them almost the same, with the difference being 6000 is 15.4" and 9300 is a 17" and about $285 more (as I configured it)

 

It's a really good deal. I think Dell this twice a year. If you don't need the laptop until next fall though, I'd hold off.

 

I am glad to see you all already figured this out. I just got an email saying it should be a go for tomorrow.

To confirm a few questions in this thread: ( I am a production manager for Dell)

1) You do not have to sign up for 3 yrs of service
2) Beetroot is right in everything he said, i.e--customize part
3) There was not a limit of 10 k last time and I have not heard this. There were limits, but they were platform specific. Might have changed this time.
4) THIS IS NOT OVERSTOCK--I have said it a million times, we make nothing in advance. These will all be custom made to your specs. Just like last time.
5) You can use a student discount
6) Someone said absurd amount of business---Dell sales approx 40k dimension desktops per day in the Americas alone. This number can go up and down. It is alot of business. Last time I think they sold almost 80k laptops in 10 hours with this half off promo.

 

 

and i was one of those 80k people who got a laptop

 

^^ Why dont you guys push again the deal of 8400 w/19" LCD for $499?

 

Yeah thats what im gonna do plus i get a 12% discount on dell computers from the college im going to.

 

Shit I missed that one. The pricing is based out of supply/demand. I wish I had control if it.

 

I'm debating on buying this, even though I have absolutely no need for a laptop.

 

so you can get a student discount even though its in home division

 

Same thing here, but Think about the weight too and you can get 9300 with the TRUELIFE Screen

 

COUPON CODE OUT - STARTS 8 AM CENTRAL TIME TOMMOROW MORNING

Got it from another thread that got closed

 

New laptop here I come! This is exactly what I have been waiting for. I'm off to Dell to configure my new laptop!

 

Just know, all the promotions and current pricing will be changed by morning, and current prices include a already $300-350 Coupon

AND ALSO

There is also a 2% off coupon code XJ8?S$BC8738C3 (Begins 4/13/05 6:00am CST 6:00am Expires: 04/13/05 at 11:59PM CST) if you have a Dell Preferred Account. Might be stackable.

AND DONT FORGET

Fatwallet.com 3% or Student Discounts 2-15%

 

I guess I was a little vague in my last post. I already have a laptop (5-6 years old) and have been looking for a good deal, and this seems to be it. $750 bucks off and the student discount are gonna get me a good good deal!

 

ONLY 35 Minutes Left, but I called and the REP Said I cant use a Student Discount with this Coupon, I am gonna call back, Dont know if he was BS'ing, have to wait till the Coupon is VALID

 

Anyone know if the coupon will work on the Dell EPP site? (Employee Discount)

 

the prices are different for the EPP site ... gay ...

 

There is no EPP site. We get coupon codes to enter just like the one above

 

I got the Inspiron 6000.

 

I am not sure if I am doing this right, but the system is telling me J096TQ8TFFG2VX
has expired

 

Yeah, my brother tried to get one...and the coupon won't apply...so I'm assuming the coupon has been used up....sux....only took an hour to sell 10,000!!!

 

Damn if thats true. It only took about an 1 hour to run through 10,000K units
