Sorry, but there was never a similar I5 for $300 during BF.

The 11th Gen WERE shipping during BF, but the deals were only on the 10th Gen.
Huge Generational Difference.

The SCREEN on this laptop is actually a quality screen in both NITS and Resolution.
The BF deals did not have this quality screen....

The BUILD Quality for the mid-tier laptops, this is a high-quality build with better chassis, keyboard, trackpad, etc.. etc....

The SSDs were smaller on bottom-tier....

And no....In General, there were not any long-standing deals for any i5s at $300. Perhaps a 5-minute deal, but those were the older i3s....Any i5 deal that was not OOS in under 5minutes for the i5 was closer to $350.

And if you are lucky to have the AMEX deal, then this is only $420....
Blowing away even BF deals if you have the AMEX deal.

This is the same laptop as in the below FP deal but now $15 cheaper. Refer to the below thread which can answer most of your questions for this Laptop.

No, it is not high at all and in fact one of the cheapest price. And What is that idiotic logic of paying over $500 for a 14 incher? You know, there are 14 incher costing $2000 as well. The Price of a Laptop is not just decided by the Screen size.

"Can the McAfee LiveSafe Consumer Subscription $37 be cancelled ? and still be able to post the transaction on 4/30 for Amex ? "

Are you saying that it's possible to call and get the price reduced by $37 by having them cancel the McAfee which is included in the deal?
Yes. They would be able to give you a credit for the $37 on the same transaction.

Weird. Does the left click still make an audible sound? Mine makes a sound on both sides, but it's not a big deal to me because my mom mostly uses a separate mouse.
The left also makes a sound (like a click sound) but it does not FEEL weird and nor does it sound weird. It's like the sound when you click on a mouse.

But the right click has a cheap feeling to it and makes this cracking weird sound. You can tell it apart easily and that it "maybe" defective.

I mean, without having anything to do with amex, right?

Because the deal says it comes with

"Security Software
McAfee LiveSafe 12 Month Subscription"

So if you order it, you could in theory, call them up afterwards, and get them to deduct that and reduce the price by $37?

With some jumping through hoops and being put on hold by someone who speaks English with an incomprehensible accent of course.

Is this on any Dell that includes 12-month McAfee?
McAfee SUCKS!
Thanks.

Do they actually pay McAfee for this or something? Because who wants McAfee...

Yeah I was very happy to get the McAfee refund on the original deal. There are plenty of free anti virus solutions. It brought the deal to about $485 before tax.

That would seal the deal for me. Is it best to wait until it ships or call right away?

Absolutely can be done. They gave me around a $38 (before tax) partial refund. They were clear to say it was a courtesy and not technically for the McAfee.

I should have said something to the effect of, "Is this commonly done?" or "Is this an option if you don't want McAfee?".

I received the credit too, which I'm happy about. I just hope I didn't screw them out of the ~$35...

It's part of Amex offers. A lot of people got it, but a lot did not. If you have any Amex card, you can login and check your Amex offers.
I am pretty sure none of the free cards have the offer.

how does it compare to the DELL 15 Ryzen 7 4700 U model like this:

https://www.dell.com/en-us/member...2f1443c701

use SAVE12 could bring down the price to $577.
Just a heads up if you're looking for a Dell Inspiron 15 inch, they are updating them very soon. Don't think the one in your link is one of the new versions. But hard to tell. You may want to wait a week or so. Not sure how many deals will be on the new models though.

Those who is getting refunded with AMEX you need to make sure you stay above $500 on AMEX charge after refund. AMEX has tendency to crawls back the offer.

I wonder where the OP got the idea that this laptop has a aluminum shell? After doing research I found out this laptop is made from the usual el cheapo plastic. This laptop even has the el cheapo plastic track pad. If I would have taken my time I wouldn't have ordered it.
