Nope but got a 3.0 one w/512mb ram, dvd burner x300ati card for $360...now just to figure out how to drop the other one I picked up...do you know how to do that? I'm on the last page about to pay but noticed that I just want one ? I know if I go back it'll probably drop out of the cart...

I don't and had the same trouble eariler. Once you go through to payment I think you have to just submit and then call to cancel the other part. I did this with a pair of speakers that got added on.

Which # did you call ? I called the order # earlier and it's just automated never talked to anyone...I screwed up on my billing address on my very first order yesterday so I need to change that.

1-888-462-3355 had to wait a long time, and it also delayed the shipment of my system for ~30 hours...at least thats what the guy told me. Since tomorrow is Sunday anyways...didn't seem like a big deal.

Ya I guess I'm still waiting for my roomate to come back from a party last drop is all I'm gonna wait. Not that I'm tired I went to sleep @ 8 in the morning or so yesterday but it's just getting boring...wish I had my 3400+ rig that I bought on here already...one more day eh...could have been utilized so many times this weekend...

 

[czech09]

It's getting weaker and weaker the one I had before didn't even show up didn't buy anything anyways I think 5 is gonna be enough I think I'm done. Good luck to everyone else I know I spent my whole weekend doing this lol...

 

[bamacre]

Well, I am pissed. Two of the systems I ordered aren't showing up on my account at Dell, nor on my credit card, nor did I get any confirmation emails. And these two were nice, both less than $350. I guess there is nothing I can do

Update: Drop times are now varying. One was at 42min's after the hour, the last one was 37min's after the hour.

 

[beyonddc]

Someone selected my system before I want to select it!
I think it was a P4 2.8ghz, 4600model for $150.

 

[Fingolfin269]

I think those random drop times are actually carts that are timing out.

So do you transfer the warranties to the people who buy them? How can you get the serial # if your systems are sealed? Just curious

Haha, here is a txt file I keep for emailing buyers...

That's it. Enjoy the system!

Thanks again, and if there's anything else I can do for you, just ask.

how are you guys dealing with shipping on the cheaper systems? Ive added a few machines that come in around $200 but then the shipping kills it, dell is charging like $100 to ship these guys.... really kills the hot deal.

any tips?

Read OP.

 

[thelanx]

Is the invoice in the box? Cause if you resell it as still sealed wouldn't they see the invoice?

Nope. There is a shipping label (which includes system specs) on the side of the box, which can be removed of course.

I grabbed this one:
