17" Dell Flat Panel For $415.20 Shipped - $390 Today only with coupon!!

if you didn't get it yet... i believe there's still a little bit of time left... i have it this monitor and i love it! the thin bevels make it great. However, there are other high-end (more expensive) LCDs, but you can't touch this for the price (you can buy two of these for the price of one!) If I wasn't in debt I'd pick up another one, or maybe a 19" (a rebadged samsung!)
 
When I went to the Dell site to order one of the 17in LCD (the cheaper one), I looked all over H--er-all over the place--for the length of warranty. No luck. So I called and talked to a sales rep, who said (politely) that it was towards the bottom of the technical specifications page. Then we looked together (Whew! I'm not going blind) and he put me on hold.

Well, he said his sales manager says three years on both monitors. Has anyone who took shipment recently (couple of weeks) looked at the paperwork to see the length of warranty? If so, could you share it with me/the group?

By the way, what's up with the shipping? It says free shipping and yet I get charged $14. I'll call tomorrow and whine. Will I have any problems?

ROTFL ... now the whistle blower becomes the coupon poster. 🙂 🙂 🙂

Maybe you should change your Quote GoodToGo 😉
 
OK, this isn't EXACTLY related, but I just find it too ironic not to bring it up here (and to compliment Dell). This is a short story comparing Dell and Airborne Express on one hand with TigerDirect and UPS on the other hand.

This morning I'm on the telephone trying to straighten out a lost order from TigerDirect. (I know.I know.) I wanted to order a Sony Clie 415 PDA. TigerDirect hadthe Sony refurbished for way less than anyone else. After about about a week of trying to order on line, I was able to get a hold of a sales rep with a complete brain and was able to cancel all five screwed up orders and complete one good order. It shipped on Nov. 13, but of course it took another week to figure that out, since I never received a tracking number.

So after about twenty minutes on hold this morning, I finally get a tracking number and check with UPS. Yep! Shipped from Illinois on Nov. 13, 2002 and due to arrive in Maryland on Nov 18th. So I call UPS and ask what's up. Oops! The package is sitting in Provo Utah and was scanned on the 20th. It is due to go out today or tomorrow (ground) and I should get it by the 27th. "Can we help you with anything else?"

Knock! Knock! Knock! I politely tell the UPS person thanks for nothing and hang up to answer the door as she was saying, "...and thank you for shipping with UPS." It's Airborne Express at the door with my 17in LCD that I ordered from Dell yesterday afternoon at 2:00.

Man! What a difference!

 
Bump for a hot deal I am soon to get in on.

Hmm. Does this coupon still "exist." I searched chubby and google and could not find a thing.

Note, I am not asking for the code, but I want to know if all my searching (and continued searching) is for nothing or not.

 
ordered wed. and got it friday... w/ the free shipping option... NICE!!! Thanks for this hot deal, my friend's brother will be VERY happy with this.

20% off expires Tomorrow

Now I don't know if that means it's good througout tomorrow until midnight, or if its over by midnight tonight. You decide.


 
i've asked around and dont think there is any additional coupons now that the old one expired. I'm considering getting in on this $415, its still a good deal.
 
I'm wondering too - a bit of a shame that I missed the $30 coupon, but $415 is still a damned good price...20% off doesn't come around THAT often, does it?
 
I missed the $30 right at 1am eastern this morning.....Ordered one tonight from small business and got it for $422.85 shipped.
 
ordered the 19" LCD for $689.20 delivered plus I used a service for another 2% off. so for around $675 I do not see how I could pass on it.

Now I will sell my 19" viewsonic crt monitor for some money to make it even cheaper.
 
I think you would be better off waiting until after the holiday's are over.

Prices will only be dropping on these.

I wouldn't be surprised if new stuff came out very soon.

Does anyone like the monitor?

i love it (E171FP), no dvi but i can't tell the difference anyway. need good video card though. i bought three, and hooked it up to GF2Ultra. looks great, bro hooked it up to a GTS and it was bad. now he has a GF4 MX and it looks better. was going to get a Radeon 9700 cuz i know ati has great PQ but i only play counterstrike so it would be a waste of money.

but again, looks excellent, especially for below $400. check out the bezel man, it is thin.
 
I guess people didn't know this before but there is a 45 off 500 on all home dell peripherals *today only*
check out FW for it.
 
Just checked, $370 now with the coupon. I think I will jump on this one, if I don't like it, I can sell it with the same price anytime. 🙂
 
Just got it, pretty impressive with it. I have a Planar 17.4 with DVI and I can only see a tiny tiny... little defference between Analog and Digital. Besides it's much smaller than my Planar. For $370 what can I complain? 😉

It does not have a Video in.
