I ordered a Dell 8400 w/ a P4 3.2, but they sent me a 3.4 intead!!

In college, Gateway sent the guy in the dorm room next to me two monitors with his computer. When he called to tell the CSR their mistake, the CSR told him to keep it because it would have cost Gateway too much to have the monitor shipped back. :shocked:

The right thing to do would be for you to contact Dell CS. You should tell them that you have received a different item than you ordered and request a correction or simply pay them the money you owe.

Honesty is the key to happiness.

I once ordered what I thought was a Radeon 9000SE from Ebay, but they sent me a 9200.

If he calls them, he should just ask what Dell wants to do about it. Chances are high the CSR will just say "don't worry about it". He certainly shouldn't volunteer to pay extra money that he never wanted to spend in the first place.

Yep, typical Dell error. Remember that non-english-speakers assemble their computers.

But this is a number mistake.

They don't read english numbers
