No these responders are correct. People pick up the refurbs all the time, in fact, you only have a few minutes after selecting a system to purchase it otherwise it goes back to the public.

Honestly what did you think would happen? That they would sit there all morning unclaimed? Quit complaining, you waited and you paid the price. Buy one from eBay or new from Dell and you'll be just fine.

I got my i9300 friday night glad I did now. I forgot to add my free printer so they gave me a big fat consession coupon to buy memory. .Now if the new go force 7800's come out and people upgrade I might be able to get a 6800 of Ebay if not no big deal.

I snoozed last time on the great 9100 deals and have suffered with my old Toshiba and its 16meg geforce 2go long enough.

sounds like a snooze to me. How did Dell 'screw' you when you haven't paid them a dime? Sounds like someone beat you to the punch.

I'd say getting a good deal on a laptop is worth being late to, or even missing work. I just don't understand why you waited til lunch to buy it.

Go buy it from ebay than, can prolly get it really cheap, and in fact screw those "fat greasy jerk-off ebay resellers with wads of ca$h."

But in all seriousness, you need to calm the h#ll down... Its not those resellers fault you had to wait until lunch for you to make up your damn mind. A wise man once said: Teetering on an decision, is just as bad as not having a decision to make at all.

JUST FYI Dell ocassionally takes inventories off their outlet to create demand and excitement when they put them back on. Also they take certian inventories out to re-price them sometimes due to an upcomming special or end of a special.

RELAX they will show up again. Just keep checking.

Their inventory was around 480 on all lappies as of yesterday. Now it is at 40ish. The bulk of those were 6000's, 1200's and 700m's. They will put them back on just keep checking.

I was looking at those earlier, and they had good prices attached, but I want a widescreen, like the 700m.

powerule, just think of it as a lessoned learned... once you find a system spec and price you like.. you gotta jump on it.

I jumped the gun to early and got a i6000 w/ integrated vid and UXGA. Come on here and do some research and purchase the i6000d in my sig... so I 'lost' $35 by having to return and reorder ($25 the shipping they wouldn't refund + $10 to ship the old one back to them)

Sorry man, those outlet systems just dont hang around forever, when you see one that you want youve got to pounce on it. Check regularly maybe you will find a good deal. The lexus line is going to be priced higher than the inspirons in the current line.
