when did they call you, and when did you order? i just sent the dellone2one website customer advocate an email to update my phone #, hopefully i will get a call soon

Does anyone know how difficult it would be to change some of the options on your order? What I'm wondering is if I could upgrade from dual 7900GS's to dual 7900GTX's at the same discounted rate. Has anyone tried to upgrade and received the same rate?

you should do it when they call you back, they should be able to change any options right then and there, remember to tell them to keep the 30% if you had it

They called me Tuesday I believe. The Phone number was 1-800-915-3355.

They called me on Friday. Even though they called and said all this about a 200 gift card, DELL is still disgusting. Taking way too long, if I knew it took that long, I would never have even thought of ordering a dell.

Yea, even though they called me I still ended up canceling my order last week. I'm just going to build a new one.

I ordered mine on 7/5

 

[EKKC]

ordered on 7/3... and i just got the call, lucky i am working at home today or else i would've missed it. i updated them with my cell and they still called my home #, bastards.
so i got them to call me, took the C2D upgrade, and got that stupid message regarding XP x64 not being compatible so they gave me the option to go MCE or PRO, of course PRO i said...

here's my new order:

10/25 sucks, but for the price, i am not complaining, i just hope i made the right choice in the C2D 6300 instead of the 200 dollar certificate and that it will still be worth someplace close to $200 when I finally get my PC

What am i missing? how did you get your price down to $1004?

 

[EKKC]

error on the first rep.
a) she wasn't supposed to give me a "downgrade" to 512MB 7900GTX for $200 less
b) i originally had 2x 160GB 7200rpm, I told her i don't want it, I want to "downgrade" to 250GB, she thought I had the 2160GB 10000rpm, giving me $400+ credit

my original price was somewhere near 1650, thanks to her, I get this for $1000. hehehehe!!! :laugh:
