That bloody Dell laptop now £292 (as low as £279!!)-EDITED FIRST POST

Kilty_2

£339 is the E-Value code N04135b isnt it? 15.4 widescreen, DVD burner, Wifi etc.

If you want it for £292 use N04131a. (Although IMO it is worth the extra £58 for N04135B + 6 cell)

Comes to £292.58 when I reduce it to 90 day collect and return, either in Home or Small Business, using N04131a

Surprisingly quick delivery considering the length of journey.
Its worth the wait though.

Im assuming theres isnt a phone number at this time of night to get hold of anyone for questions i have? Ive just tried phoning but it shut at 6pm. This offer finishes tonight so i need to order if im going to.

Does anyone know what happens after 90 days if something goes wrong?
I thought anything purchased new had 1 year warranty, would you have to pay after the 90 days?

Does anyone know what the cost of the admin fee is which is payable if the
full amount is paid at month 12 if the 12 month interest free finance option is taken out?

Is this what you're after?

Buy Now, Pay Later: Pay a low 10% deposit then take a 12 month payment holiday. At the end of this holiday period, you can either pay the cash price plus an administration fee of £49, or continue with 36 monthly payments.

And I take it you weren't charged?

Although I've already paid for the OS disk I might just have a go at blagging the others.

^Hi, when did you order by the way?

I placed the order for the laptop on Sunday night 9th April.
I think we will recieve this laptop very soon because I have justed checked the UPS tracker and it states that the laptop has been shipped to Oldham where my mum lives.
Touch wood she could well be recieving it tomorrow.

Did it even come with powerDVD 5.5 installed?
