Yep, and if that IS what they ship, there will be more hell to pay, since they don't say it's a cradle, they say the package INCLUDES a cradle. If they ship 50000 cradles then they will get 50000 cradles returned, and have to credit customers for that...the man-hours alone on dealing with that many ships and returns would probably out weigh any money they would save by shipping only cradles...remember Dell is eating the cost of shipping too..

I ordered mine about 11:00pm PST last night...not expecting to get it but if I do another Christmas present for myself...or a Ebay money-maker...

Out...

when i ordered that $217 Dimension 2400 early this month, it showed up immediately in order status

20 is small number as I know some guys ordered 250

stfu. 20 isn't a small number. You will rot in purgatory; while they rot in hell. Consider yourself lucky and don't screw everyone over again.

Who knows if you ordered 50 then say 1?

Because I don't want to SCREW everyone else (including MYSELF) over for this deal. It's orders like YOURS that makes dell decide to not honor the price discrepency.

Why not! If you have the money to order 250 of something like this that is WAY below market value, you'd be a idiot not to. The order might get cancelled but what have you lost, out no money, and had a opportunity to make alot, let's see if you bought them all for $80/each, then sold them for say $200 each (still a steal), that's $120 profit per item...doing that with 250 of them, that's $30,000 PROFIT!!! In anybody's book that's ALOT of money, with no downside at all...you just have to look at it as a business.

I would have ordered a bunch if I had the money...

Out...

Guys, gimme a break. Gluttony is certainly not a positive attribute, but in this case him ordering 20 has nothing to do with this deal getting killed. What is the difference between him ordering 20 and 20 people ordering 1? Nothing. I am sure that Dell conservatively sold 25,000 of these since it was posted last night, maybe more. That by itself will throw up all sorts of red flags......

It's called common courtesy for the other members to get in on the deal.

Well the red flags that go up for me will be that Dell is unreliable, as their website is proving to us more and more each week that goes by.

If they do not honor what they need to be responsible enough to post on their webiste, then they are a bad company to buy from, in my opinion.

Seriously. I have also noticed it seems to be the junior members that are doing this. Ridiculous. Also; while YOU look at it as 20 people ordering 1 a piece VS 1 person ordering 20... that means 19 considerate people will not get one.

Based on the part number "X3IPROM" -- i'd guess this was supposed to be a promotional deal only allowed if you also bought a computer system.

here's hoping Santa comes a little early

This is a fair game guys.
Remember 4600 deal for 139 bucks? I ordered 1 and got cancel. Others ordered 100s and get shipped.
How about the Planar LCD for 300 bucks. Mine get canceled. Others got subtitude for better LCD (ie 1800FP, 1901FP...)
Again, this is a fair game.
