In its hayday, people were paying $100-200 for an invite... 8O

So you actually bargained $300 off the price of a new notebook from Dell?! You can bargain with them? Did you agree to give up anything, or did you just talk them down?

$100-200?!? Jeepers. They'll be crying now!

With the Dell...yes, I managed to bargain off around $300 off a new notebook. That is why I prefer to order over the phone than online, because there's a sales consultant that I can talk to. I did not give up anything. I just talked down the price, and got them to throw in a leather case. Nice huh? :wink:

Wow, I didn't know you could bargain with Dell.
This changes things... 0X

How much did you end up paying anyway?

A$3500 - I pretty much maxed out all the possible options in the specs, minus the D-Port Replicator, MS Office, and CPU.
