***EDIT: PROBLEM SOLVED SEE BELOW
Does anybody know if the 35% off deal for the Inspiron E1505 will ever be back, or if it is gone for good? Dell's "10 days of deals" page is apparently offline and I can't tell if the 35% off deal was part of that (and will therefore be ending today) or if it is separate.
I have been talking to my parents and sister about what laptop to get her for college, but when we finally got around to trying to buy it, the 35% off deal was gone and replaced with a $410 off deal for the E1505. It seems like they were switching back and forth between those two deals for days. Because of the upgrades I want to give her, the $410 off will be about $150-200 more expensive than 35% off.
However, if they were both "10 days of deals" then I guess I run the risk of losing even that deal and having to pay full price for everything! That would not be good. It would also not be good if they replaced it with a newer model, which might have better specs but would be a lot more expensive, and would give us less bang for the buck than the current deals.
Can any of you more savvy customers help me predict what will happen / decide what to do? Should we just swallow it and go with the $410 off, or is there a possibility the 35% deal might be back?
Thanks for your help!!!
