===========================

Promotion Terms and Details
--- For every $400 worth of Dell eGift Card(s), the purchaser receives a $75 Dell Promotional eGift Card.
--- Dell eGift Cards can be purchased in any denomination from $10 - $500.
--- To consolidate Dell purchased eGift Cards visit www.dell.com/giftcards.
--- Promotional eGift Card expires 90 days from date issued and cannot be consolidated with any other card.
--- Any unauthorized reproduction, sale or transfer constitutes fraud.
--- Offer eligible from November 6th to November 27th, 2012.
--- eGift Card purchase total is limited to $500 per single transaction.
--- Please see additional terms and conditions at http://dell.cashstar.com/about/te...onditions/.


Reward Chart
Total Purchase Amount → Reward
$400.00 - $500.00 → $75.00

---------------------------------------------------

1 - For online orders there is a limit of one gift card per order. For phone orders there is a limit of three payments.
2 - Non-promotional gift cards, aka paid cards, can be consolidated ($400+$400+$400 = 1x $1200card)
3 - Promotional cards cannot be consolidated ($50x3 = 3 separate cards) but they can be stacked (see Example 2 below)
4 - If you have a balance, your credit card counts as form of payment
5 - You can use multiple gift cards by calling in (the website limits you to one)
6 - The cards can be used at Dell Home, Dell Small Business, and Dell Outlet but not Dell Financial Services

Example 1:
Item's price ~$1325
Buy 3x $400 paid cards, get 3x $75 promo cards
The 3x $400 paid card can be consolidated into one $1200 paid card
Total Payment:
$1200 paid card
$75 promo card
$50 left over for credit card (plus tax and ship or whatnot)
*Can only use one promo card here because the residual balance will be more than the other promo card can cover and the credit card must be used to cover the rest.

Example 2:
Item's price ~$800
Buy 2x $400 paid cards, get 2x $75 promo cards
The 2x $400 paid cards can be consolidated into one $800 paid card
Total Payment:
$75 promo card
$75 promo card
$650 (plus tax and ship or whatnot) on consolidated paid card. Have $150 balance (less tax and ship) on paid card.
*Can use both promo cards here because the residual balance is a credit

What a lousy experience! Purchased mine yesterday around 2:00 and immediately received order confirmation. No cerfticates emailed to me by 5:00, so i clicked on the link in my confirmation for the status of my cerfticates. Status says "Contact Us", please contact customer care, blah, blah. YOU'D THINK THEY'D EMAIL YOU IF THERE WERE ANY PROBLEMS. Called customer care. After about 15 minutes on hold, i left detailed message with my phone number. Ofcourse, i never received a phone call back. Wanted to buy a cybermonday sale, ofcourse it's now expired!

Ordered two. Got my first one IMMEDIATELY, including the promo. The second one is still in process, likely because they were purchased back-to-back.

Yes. It officially ended on the 28th. But they really ended it a lot earlier by f'ing everybody that tried to order after at least the 23rd.

If I purchase something with gift cards how am I issued a refund? In the form of a gift card or can I request a check?

i am completely baffled on how this happened but I got on this deal. i got 2x $400 GC from cashstar using discovercard virtual CC#.

four days ago, i got an email from Discover CashBack stating i had purchased from "Dell Home" on 11/17/2012 and that i had earned $70 cashback.

i went to look at my charges for the past 3 months and I have not purchased anything from dell directly.

the only reasonable explanation is that CASHSTAR charged my card as "DELL CASHSTAR EGIFTCRD PORTLAND ME SECURE NUMBER XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX". perhaps using the Virtual CC#s triggered cashback link and the name as the charge triggered cashback to be applied to my account????

but even still, (10% of (400 *2)) = $80. doesn't add up to $70.

anyone else see this?
