i think its legit. the 22 in monitor alone is $240. so you figure if you subtract that, its still around $100

tell that to these people. Too good to be true? maybe.

I can still get the price, but can't seem to get the free shipping again. I wanted to order a second one for my parents. The site seemed to offer free shipping kind of randomly for my first order so I'm not sure what the trick is. Anyone know the trick to get free shipping again?

Web page seems broken. Keeps giving me an error about updating the price and nothing happens when I click on Continue at the bottom :/

A co-worker just ordered one. We didn't go with the full on bare system, he ended up with a nice one for $170 w/ tax (He wanted a burner, etc). It also had Free overnight shipping!

ahhh that worked for me.

I tried to check out, but it shot the price up to $400 after I proceeded to checkout

 

[numatrix]

just did 5 @ $69ea. no FS for me. willing to pay $29 each for shipping. $534 for 5 systems, can't beat that pricing per unit with Vista included.

now, hope it fully goes through.

Thanks. OP.

I can't get the free shipping either. I am ordering two, so its over $100, but no free shipping.

 

[Pepsei]

damn it...dead...

 

[ra990]

Deal seems to be dead. They adjusted the options so the ones selected by default are the cheapest ones. You can't seem to go any cheaper. Also cannot remove the monitor anymore. Oh well, hope the orders that went through already make it!

 

[ivan2]

they killed it while I was poking around in the cart trying to get free shipping. there's no way to remove the monitor now and the the lower end processor has been removed =(. good luck to those who ordered.

Looks like Dell found their problem and have removed all of the downgrades. At least on the way I got to it.

Hi,

I don't get free shipping ... 3 ~ 5 day shipping to NC is $59.98. Are you still getting free shipping?

gard

EDIT ... n/m ... I see the posts from others about not getting f/s. Ordered 2 for $211.36 including s/h. Here's hoping it ships ...

 

[Vetterin]

Just like Dell did about a month ago, they noticed their mistake and removed all "subtract items" from the options lists. All those that got their orders in earlier can expect an email from Dell. "If it sounds too good....................................."

 

[Genx87]

Looks like they fixed the issue. Always miss out on teh good deals

 

[1ceHacka]

I got in just before they removed it, and got two of them. $211 shipped for two downgraded ones. It will probably be canceled, but I can always hope it goes through.

I got in for 2:
-- Save $280 on select Vostro 220ST Desktop through Dell Small Business.
- $560.00
-- Save $280 on select Vostro 220ST Desktop through Dell Small Business.
- $560.00
Subtotal: $98.00
IVA: --
Shipping and Handling: $59.98
Import Fee: --
Total: $167.45

It look like something happened when they where changing it and it gave me a larger discount, only $49 each. No free shipping though, not that I am complaining. Here's to hoping it goes through.

I doubt we get them. I went with the $69 option vostro, and I can't see them actually sending it to me. You can be that if the charge goes through, I will be on them fast.
