HOT! 10/14 ONLY: 30-40% OFF Dell Dimension Desktops!

[JumpOnDeals]

This is hot!

On October 14 (from 8:00am CST through 8:00pm CST) Dell Home is going to run 2 coupons of 30-40% off Dimension desktops. 30% off Dimension desktops of $999 or more or 40% off Dimension desktops of $2499 or more.

With the 40% coupon you can basically get the BEST system out there including a 20.1" LCD monitor for about $1500!

I'm looking at this system:

Steve,

Welcome back, long time no see

I hope you're back for good?

 

[wwu4life]

So instead of going for the 25% off Dells right now, I can get an even better deal on a dimension xps system tomorrow?

where is this advertised?

Is there a 30-40% off cupon for laptops tomorrow as well?

I'd knock off a little of the price by going with a slower cpu and maybe a 19in UltraSharp, and snag that 6800GT instead of the x300 card.

Cliff notes...

WinXP Pro
19in 1905FP Dell Ultrasharp
P4 550 HT 3.4GHz 800

2524.00 shipped - 40% = 1514.40 [+ Your Sales tax (9.25% for me )] = 1514.40 - $100 MIR.....


$1414.40 + (config your own tax)

Unfortunately no. However there will be a $200 off $999+ and a $350 off $1499+ Inspiron laptop coupon.

There will also be a $25 off $250 Electronics and Accessories.

Dell is getting close to the end of their fiscal quarter, so look for these great deals to continue (and possibly get even better) during the next 2+ weeks.

Also keep in mind that most of the promotions (rebates, free upgrades, etc...) for systems end tonight at midnight, so it will be interesting to see what new promotions they will have tomorrow to stack with the new coupons.

 

[wwu4life]

how can I find out what other deals may be available over the next 2 weeks? I'm planning on buying a decked out dell tomorrow, unless I know there will be a better deal w/in the next week or so.

Yeah, I imagine all the MIR's and "SAVE $XXX" on LCD's will be gone with the appearance of the mentioned coupons. Other than a cheap 400SC, I couldn't bring myself to buying something from Dell.

There is no way of knowing that far in advance. They give us usually a day or two notice about the coupons, but that's it.

This is OT but..are you from Bellingham?

 

[wwu4life]

yes, u?

 

[churchdoesmatter]

There's a whole dell 8400 deal posted on FW (Fatwallet) . You might want to check it out.

 

[RossMAN]

Bellingham, WA?

 

[RayW69]

If anyone in the Portland, OR area is looking to to get on this deal and doesn't need a new monitor, but needs to add the 2001FP to bump the system above $2500 to use the 40% coupon, PM me. Wow, that was a truly spectacular sentence. I'm looking to get a 2001FP on the cheaper side. Ship to me and avoid paying tax .

 

[MIDIman]

Need to know - does this computer have any original PCI slots? i.e. anyone know what slots there are other than the PCI Express x16 video?

If anyone's interested, I think I'm going to buy this and sell the 20" LCD.

 

[steelblue2001]

I would LOVE this monitor...I call first dibs! I am a drafter and I need an upgrade, so just let me know how you wanna do this!

Joel

 

[bamacre]

If you are going to do that, I'd get 2 2001FP's and sell both. At 40% off with the system, you can make a few bucks in the end off them.

 

[kitkit201]

I am going to wait on it. my Imac g5 cost me ~1500 with applecare, so I wait for Dell to come out with a better deal sometime soon.

 

[mchammer187]

i would be all over this if the 40% off was for purchases $2000 and above instead of $2500

Wow! I haven't thought of this combo. Great deal!

Steve

 

[hytek369]

wow this is hot, but damn i am too poor

 

[Kniteman77]

The price estimates are a bit flawed.

The 40% does not stack on top of the 10% rebate dell has going on right now.

 

[MIDIman]

Again, does anyone know the number of PCI, PCI express slots, etc. on the 8400?
