All you need to do is add this item ( £50 OFF ANY OF OUR DELL BASES WITH A 1 YEAR WARRANTY) to you basket with the base unit and it will knock off £50.

You can add 1 for each base unit you buy

    Postage looks like £8.95 for standard 48 hour inclusive price is £180.90.

    I looked at T&C and it looks like they are used products - but they come with a year's waranty.

    thanks might order one, although i think it might be better to wait for a dell offer to come along.

    Is the price not £145 + 8.95 postage, not 180.90???

    cheers

    Blimey that is good - These cannot be very old machines - perhaps they are old stock sold as refurbished ?
