well that's embarrassing dells new dellrefurbished.com site is broken

[ingear]

https://www.dellrefurbished.com/ try clicking on any of the links

like

Dell Servers & Networking
should lead to http://www.dellrefurbished.com/enterprise-products

but it either reloads to

www.dellrefurbished.com

or takes me to

https://dfs-uk.snowmachine.me/

I wouldn't post it .. but it's been like that for few hours :/

embarrassing or perhaps it's a marketing scheme

isn't there any central site that lists such down times ?

Works fine for me.

Sounds like you have some kind of DNS hijacking going on. Works fine for me as well.

And now I'm about to waste an hour of my time looking at server stuff I don't actually need.

Either the problem was fixed within an hour of your post, or you have a strange hijack going on. Works fine for me as well.

To quote a wise man.... "well that's embarrassing"

New improved site!
Same great low prices.
We've made shopping even faster and more efficient with our improved layout to be more responsive and mobile-friendly.

Works fine for me. Maybe the OP has a spyware infection... or maybe we've just been tricked into looking at Dell's new web site

 

[purbeast0]

Sounds like OP has a virus and his computer is going to explode.

Works fine here.

classic case of PEBKAC

 

[Rifter]

screwed for me too, all the links in the OP take me to http://www.dell.com/en-us/

 

[BoomerD]

Takes me to dellrefurbished.com, which is a Dell Financial Services website, offering "Off Lease Dell Refurbished Computers and Accessories Direct from Dell"

Sucker!

Just tried it on my phone running Chrome and I am now seeing the page redirect to www.dell.com.

This replacing the Outlet? I see they carried over the stupid "refresh after every filter change" issue.

I like how the rack mount servers are now tagged with a "non residential use only" disclaimer. Something tells me that someone tried putting one of those in their office and got pissed off by the fan whine

 

[VirtualLarry]

Site seems to work fine for me, but prices... aren't really impressive. $279 for the cheapest laptops? Used/Refurbished? How is that a deal? Rather try ebay.

Edit: Whoops. Didn't notice the dates...

 

[Ketchup]

Well, considering those issues were occurring over 2 years ago, could have just been a temporary issue while they were updating the site or low on stock.

Thanks spammer?

Ftr I got a great deal on a refurbished laptop a couple years ago

Haha that seems like a "challenge accepted" for me...

Actually it's funny, I recently turned off one of my older servers that had 2 80mm delta fans and it feels too quiet in my house now. Was too used to the white noise. I hear white noise at work all the time too because of all the telco gear. I do kinda wonder if there's long terms effects of that though... it's not loud as it's still behind walls but it's constant.
