Have you got a link because I can`t find it on the Dell UK site.
Only these:

I know they are refurbs but they still come with a years warranty and the price seems good compared to the new price.0

My current PC is a Dell refurb I bought from their outlet store 2 years ago. When it arrived it was indistinguishable from new, significantly cheaper than similar offerings I could find anywhere else and it has performed faultlessly. I'm not up to speed enough with current pricing to tell whether the PC in the OP is a good deal or not, but I'd be surprised if it wasn't.There's love in this world for everyone.

Im the same completly out of the loop specs/price wise but at £140 saving does seem a good bet.0

Bear in mind that Outlet Store pricing excludes VAT and shipping and that shipping is slightly excessive at over £20 (but it's the same for the regular Dell store). Delivery times are quite slow too, about two weeks. They occasionally run free shipping deals, but not right now (I was lucky).There's love in this world for everyone. Every rascal and son of a gun.
