    Hey all
    Trying to buy a dell inspiron 9300 and I'm comming across some problems. I found $200 off coupon in this forum and I tried to apply it to my system that I customize. I went through this link:

    http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/products/features.aspx/inspn_9300?c=ca&cs=CADHS1&l=en&s=dhs

    to get to it and I really only added the nvidia 6800 vid card to it. Then when I apply the coupon code with dell computers that I got from this forum from this link

    http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/topics/segtopic.aspx/affiliates_notebooks?c=ca&cs=CADHS1&l=en&s=dhs

    I get an error msg. If I do it from the Inspiron 9300 link from that page I can add it no problem. Are they saying that we can only use 200 off from those computers in the link above? Cause the advert says ANY dell computer which is weird. Any help is appreciated cause I wanna use this before it expires.

    BTW the coupon code I used was LL7W?TRDZKJFB$

    hey, I'm not sure what part of the site you grabbed that coupon from if you could link to that it'd really help because this might be an old expired coupon but more likely I see you are going to the Dell Canada site and the coupons we post are only for the U.S. site

    it must use an affiliate code and session to track you when you use that url to go and buy a notebook which will allow the coupon to work. You'll just have to go via that url.

    Dells pricing games make me sick. You can never be sure you got a good deal from them because the prices and offers change by the hour.
