10/08/2012 02:19:20PM Me: "the two systems in comparison"
10/08/2012 02:19:25PM Agent : "the $925 has 6gb and I7"
10/08/2012 02:19:45PM Agent : "since is dell new it less and it hass less pecs"
10/08/2012 02:19:52PM Agent : "check tomorrow if there are more in stock"

Quote from toothpick : I've had a script refreshing the page every 10 seconds watching for ~ 24 hours now watching the prices. They have not posted a SINGLE $925 machine. This promotion seems to be a stunt. They posted 30+ machines with the exact specs prices $4 too high for the coupon?! Give me a break! Dell has hit a new low with this one! And to the people (person) who said " I got one." Prove it! Otherwise, I say your in on Dell's game here... I plan to write corporate about this scam of a promotion if they don't post a system as advertised soon.

Thank you. I actually need to buy the 17r se so I might just buy one without the coupon. I don't appreciate dell running a "sale" thats bullshit though.

Quote from cz9h3d : I bet it's configured exactly the same - based on other models I've been looking at. The price difference is likely just a way for them to control how many they put into this promotion.

I'm very sorry that Dell is not putting up many,(if any) of the $925's listed.

OK, I just found one at $929, let's compare:
(There be other $929's, as quoted above, with different specs)

The only difference between the two is the 32GB SSDR mSATA Card
However, that is a big difference.

They may have others at $929, which are the same except for the Condition (S&D/New) or Win 7 Pro or any combination of specs, different from the $925 listed.

The reason they have a $xx5.00, is so you can find them when they are there, as no others in the Outlet end in a 5. (IMO)

25% off for the next 3 days!

Bottom left on the Dell Deal page:

Something funky going on with this. I got the "Dell Order Has Been Acknowledged for Dell Purchase ID" email.. But it's been 2 days and I've gotten no followup.. When I enter the purchase ID on their website it says the order doesn't exist.. Lovely.. Bait and switch.

Literally bought that same 17R SE exactly 14 days ago for $784.40. Mine came with a 32GB SSD used as a cache drive. Not sure that adds much, or if this one includes it. I wonder if I should try and return it for this one, or if that's even possible at this point.

Oh I didn't read through the full thread. Yeah this is the same one I just bought for $784.40 *14* days ago. It looks like if I try to return it I may get hit with a 15% restocking fee. I'm not sure there's anything I can do at this point about it.

Anyway here's mine see if it's apples to apples. The Unit price is higher one mine, and the discount is the same. Looks like the same specs to me. Maybe they lowered the initial unit price.
