No cookies were cleared. One 15% is a price adjustment to the item in the cart that occurs when you sign in. To get the additional 15% deduction you need to add another item to trigger the deduction, you can then remove the item you added and proceed with your order.

1. Add item to cart.
2. Sign into account (if already sign in click on link at top of order to sign in again)
Upon signing in, the price should be adjusted in your cart, but no 15% discount shows in coupon section anymore
3. Add a second item
15% coupon appears in cart
4. Remove item you added
5. Checkout

It is indeed working. I cleared my cookies to get it to work.

Thanks AU Tiger, it seems to work now. It says "Item price changed" in red by the new discounted price.

GOT IT!!

The Planar PL201M for just over $700 shipped (including eBates).

Now...how does this compare to the Dell 2000FP? (Specs looks the same...)
One of these LCDs is going to find a new home.

I'm jealous of you guys that got the LCDs. My wife shot down that idea. I did end up getting an Axim and a wireless network setup though.

So this is two 15% off INSTANT rebates? So are these stackable with the 15% dell SB coupons as well for 45% off?

 

[larsrulz]

the dell coupons all expired yesterday. Both coupons are auto applied if done CORRECTLY. i.e. see above.

 

[shootsfor3]

There's also the 5% stackable coupon , so 15+15+5

 

[larsrulz]

just ordered mine.....692.08 total with tax and 3 day shipping (I ordered a computer from them wednesday night and it was already here friday morning, so they do really mean 3 days or less

btw...dell always includes the standard "Please note that Dell cannot be responsible for typographical or other errors, and reserves the right to cancel any orders resulting from such errors." in their order confirmation email. Anyone ever heard of them actually doing this? Cause I'm positive that this is an error, where a 15% coupon was not canceled yesterday when it was supposed to, so that two discounts are included.

On the PX191 or any other LCD like Planars for that matter.....does the backlight show up more and more towards the bottom of the screen? Like on LCD's for laptops, how if they display a black bar at the top and bottom for a DVD....the black bar at the bottom the backlight bleeds threw?

 

[Naps]

I believe these states don't have sales tax: Alaska, Delaware, Montana, New Hampshire, & Oregon. I ordered from Oregon, I was not charged sales tax.

 

[Chadder007]

OMG...just blew 600 on a monitor. I think I feel sick....even though it should have costs 800+ hehe
I think someone from da household here is going to have a fit....

I also just spent 4000 on a new bedroom suite (it was on sale at 4500....i talked them down to 4000)
Also spent 500 on a craftsman toolchest for my dad ....for tomorrow.

no....mo....money. :frown:

I'm not having luck seeing the extra 15% coupon.. It shows my discount as 142.35

I wasn't lucky getting it back to show the extra 15% discount either....but I saved my cart and it also saved the extra 15%. I think the page before this one shows a way to get it back now though.
Now to see if we all get our orders or if Dell will pull a "we reserve the right to cancel your order"

 

[Imported]

Oo.. I see. I had to sign in and it worked.. total with the 5% is 701.85 for the 20" Planar.. NOT SURE IF I SHOULD DO IT.. AHHH! ::insert going crazy emoticon::

 

[UltraWide]

just do it!!!

 

[Maxcat]

Hot deal! I couldn't resist. The extra 15% showed up for me at checkout. It had a blurb about how I'm a valued Dell SB customer, blah, blah, blah. What do you all think of the Viewsonic VG900b? It works out to just under $500 before tax. 600:1 contrast is pretty good. No DVI but I can live without that. Any opinions on this model and how it compares to the Planar PL191's?

Damn. Now I have 3 LCD's.

 

[Cybordolphin]

I just ordered one of these last week and paid $100 more from Dell. Will they credit me for the new price on that one?

Just ordered another! Hot DEAL!!!! I picked up another PX171M-BK $397 delivered!

Oh wait... I can't afford this..... awwwwwwwwwww cr@p. Oh well. Too good to pass up.

 

[Imported]

I gave in.. Hopefully I'll have a 20" Planar at my doorstep by Friday..

 

[Cybordolphin]

That's weird... I have never been charged tax in the past... but it looks like they changed my order and added tax this time!!?? Whats up with that?

Youve probably never ordered from the Small Business division before. The Home division doesn't charge tax mostly.

 

[dcdomain]

Doh... they started charging tax on me too. Extra $24 for tax. Oh well, still going ahead, one hell of a deal. Canons S400 and the leather case for it. Around $375 with tax.

Would any of the projectors Dell sells work well in a home theatre system? Thinking about picking one up.

 

[Cybordolphin]

Their site is screwy (generally it screws them ), cause I know I have gotten the Small business deals and yet checked out as a non business customer and not paid tax before. I just ordered this monitor (not quite as good a deal) last week and paid NO tax. Have to figure out how I did that.

 

[Imported]

If you do the 5% off coupon, it almost makes up for the tax..

 

[chuenl]

I never buy things from Dell Small Business. Too much tax to pay.

 

[Xab]

That's because if you really are a Small Business, like you are supposed to be to buy from that division P) you probably have a Tax Exempt ID and they will take off the tax from your purchase. If you are just a home user lookin for the bargains, they figure you can pay the tax hehe
