    You've gone and whipped them up into a frenzy!

    So it looks like the 50% off price would still be ex vat & del? Is the discount link/code unique to your dell account?[/QUOTE]

    It was an e-mail to me as a previous business customer, it said I could get 5% 15% 25% or 50% off depending on the "random" code

    Says last day for the 150 off is today, presumably means 16th expiry is midnight on 15th ?

    If you PM me your a/c details for the voucher I can purchase one for both of us


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,132 ✭✭✭oneweb


    I'd like to express my interest in a code if there's one to spare, please?

    It is what it's.

    Sorry ShaunC misread your post, thought you were unable to purchase before the expiry!

    I am still interested as per earlier PM

    I called a friend working in Dell and asked if he could get me this deal.
    He did, and put it through for me on the spot. Now there is a dent in my credit card.

    So if you know anyone in Dell give them a call. They should be able to help.

    It would be only fair to pm the codes to the first 5 people who pm'ed the OP to express interest.
    or the first people who asked on the thread and not people who are trying to skip the queue? ;)

    PM Me.

    Love watching the bitching and moaning that goes on when a bargain like this pops up; "I was here first etc" - from a poster with 1 post.

    The code can only be used once. Read dells coupon terms and conditions. And they reserve the right to "review" orders. I'd paste a link but I'm on an iPhone.

    I just got a mail from dell about some error on the codes yesterday and they gave me a new one. Only 5% though...

    I have a feeling they have copped on......


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,858 ✭✭✭Soarer


    Hopefully ShaunC will get his.

    Twould be proper bad luck if, by trying to help others out, he missed out on it too!

    So that was a catch! :mad:

    Replied to your PM there if you've time to check it. Im ready to go ahead anyway.

    BTW, is there an option to switch the windows 7 from 32bit to 64bit? it should be at no extra cost, and makes a big difference in being able to utilize all that ram.

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,881 ✭✭✭kala85

    I was going to post "Genuine Windows® 7 Professional with XP Mode Installed 32 bit" too.

    OP is you have a spare one I'll give ya 450 for it.

    actually, after putting together the same system on Dells website, it looks like almost nothing is customisable, including changing to W7 x64. a real pitty. ill see if i have a spare licence somewhere, 32bit can only see/utilise upto 3.2gb of RAM.
    I was really hoping to get it in red too :( a real shame.


    sorry NeedaNewName, i cant do that, its immoral (for those ahead of the line) and probably againsed boards rules ie profiteering.

    and tbh, ive no idea if im in with a system myself, i just got a PM from the OP after sending him one early in the morning. no reply yet anyway.

    Sounds good. I'm interested.

    What type of BA is this? It's a fukking joke, mods!

    It's bad enough when the finer points of massage are allowed in threads, but a bloke touting a non existent link of a bargain is a bloody farce.

    weeeeeeeelllll, if people get this, then its a very worthy thread. even if its only a few people. thats what a bargain is, something that expires after its out of stock or whatever.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,486 ✭✭✭Mountjoy Mugger


    Post reported. We'll see.
