9300: 47% Discount

Thread Starter 
Ordered 9300 tonight using following combined discounts: 30% off business systems, 12% EPP, 2% DPA, plus additional $200 EPP coupon. From unit price of ~$2300 down to ~$1200 and change, ~47% discount

Had bought nearly same rig yesterday without $200 coupon, so cancelled that one and reordered tonight. Confirmed by Dell 15min ago.

If ur in the market for a 9300, it probably won't get much better than this...

12% off EPP and 2% DPA discounts are always there,
so all you need is the 30% off and $200 off coupon

Pretty good deal. EPP sometimes has the best deal out of all dell stores, got mine there after $750 off 1500, + 6%off EPP + 2%DPA + free shipping, that's almost 60%off if you get a base model 9300. well I paid a little more for the 6800 and trulife, so my 9300 cost just under 1000 shipped, complained about 6-cell battery life, and even got my 9-cell upgrade free!!!

heres what I did
start here: http://www1.us.dell.com/content

select the 3/4 warranty option for 12% discount
use JH31NP82ZV8K2K for 30%
use Z22$QGT5CW$$L8 for $200 off if your order > $2000

when you check out select Dell Preferred Acct to get the 2%

something else that waynet did not specify(may or may not make a difference to you):

if you start w/ EPP, i think you pretty much have to get one of the "support packages", they call 'em silver/gold bundles.

after you make your selection of components/accessories, go back to the system and then just select a 3 yr onsite warranty & nights/weekends, you will get another 50-75 bucks off. somehow i still managed to keep the 12%.

you will need a DELL EPP ID. i can't help you there.

also, the URL is http://www.dell.com/epp

actually you can use the EPP without an ID, you'll just have to include a business name during checkout

mine is on/before 6Dec; my experience though is they typically ship before the estimated date unless there are options in your order in short supply

I'm thinking of this EEP too What kind of a job does a Dell customer have to have to be able to apply for the EPP program. Can for example a member of some of a kind National sports team qualify for the EPP coupons? How often does Dell check whether customer are eligible for the EPP coupons? Thanks!

EDIT: fixed sth., since I saw one question didn't make any sense ...

That sucks that the 30% off coupon wont work on the XPS notebooks. And how do you find out if your qualify for the EPP savings? I'm in college but i dont know if my college participates in the Dell program thing even though they have Dell computers there. They probably dont.

Help

I need this! I tried it on the buisness site and the home site but it didnt work.....can you walk me through all those steps. The coupons registered as being entered and then didnt affect the price. Also I dont see a warranty option that gives a percentage off anywhere. The laptop (9300) with all the options that I want is just about 3000 dollars, so I really need these coupons!!!! THis is what I've been waiting three months for, I really dont want to miss these amazing deals like I did in August!!! THX
