Just remember the old saying .....

"If it seems too good to be true, it probably is....."

I tried to ge the Dell 4600 for 250.00 a few months ago and then realized that most of those deals were mistekes and would be cancelled so I stopped trying for the "price mistake" deals.

Oh well..

Well, as of 10a.m. my order's status came up 'processing'. Expected delivery date is tomorrow, so they're going to have to hustle to review all the orders this must have generated!

I assume everyone is talking about stacking the coupons, since I can't find a 50% off coupon, but it is only letting me stack 2 of the (one $30 one $15) for a total of $45 off of $100, which is not 50%, so what am I doing wrong?

Aside from being several hours late on a dead deal, you're not doing anything wrong. Besides, it was $50 off, not 50% off.
By the time I got to it at 2 a.m., Staples had partially corrected so that it was $50 off $150. I had another coupon and a gift cert (from the Jeep Test Drive thread).
We'll see if I get my Internal DVD drive, 25 spindle DVD+R media and 50 spindle CD-R media for $40!

Yes you are right it was $50 not 50%. I noticed they had free shipping for orders over $50 though, so I just used the $15 and $30 with the free shipping, I not going to look all day for the extra $5, thanx

The OP should change this to "DEAD" because FW is reporting that e-mails are being sent out for all orders using this coupon.

What do the emails say? Are they cancelling all orders?

Who really cares about the blacklist. I have jumped on almost every one of these deals with no problems.
Even if I was put on a list, I doubt it will affect me in any way. I am sure I will go on living a happy life.

Why warn people about this? It sounds like you dont want people using this coupon. Hopefully your order
will get processed if nobody else uses the coupon.

This coupon would probably show you how the BL works.

Isn't there a lock around here someplace?
