    1 Theres another mini laptop out the Inspiron 12,totally identical to all the rest except in screen size 559 euro...Dont know why anybody would bother at the price ...Then again its a steal compared with something similar two years ago ...
    2 There are ZERO laptops available in the 'Outlet'...I thought that with a new XPS (or at least a facelift?) due they would be selling loads of stuff there .


    They really dropped the ball with the european price of the Inspiron 9.

    Quarters don't enter into it. They always had a good stock in the outlet but not for the last couple of months. I still get mails from them about great deals there but there's only 8 or 10 at the most and all over priced.
    Their Ebay outlet has dried up aswell. Nothing on the Irish one since the 19th of September.

    I spoke to a sales guy in dell outlet yesterday. Two reasons - there aren't as many returns from Irish customers (either that's a good sign re quality, or they're not selling as many new systems in Ireland).

    The second one has more impact though - for technical reasons that they are working to resolve, they can't currently offer UK returned stock on the Irish site (yesterday, there were over 300 notebooks on offer on dell.co.uk/outlet). The guy I spoke to said the he hoped that it would be resolved within the next 1-2 weeks.

    No. They will only deliver to UK addresses.
