    I called them because i used the 600 dollar off coupon on my 6000 order, and it came out to 1,096 bucks...with the 750 coupon I will save 150 dollars!

    I called their financial services line,and they said that even though I am not going to be changing my notebook configuration or anything, they are still going to cancel my shipping process and create a whole new order!!

    Well at least they aren't charging me for it, seems worth it to me to get an extra 150 bucks [ :D]

    That is if my laptop applies heheh.

    Would anyone else say screw the 150 just to have it earlier?

    No, saving the $150 for a few more days, it's certainly worth it if you ask me.

    Mozirry,
    It's absolutely worth $150. If you already had your notebook and the difference was $100 or less , Dell was mostly doing credits. I take it that you didn't actually have your notebook yet. When I changed my order with the same configuration before I had it ( a week ago) they have to cancel out the order and place it again if you're using a new coupon. $150 is worth everything! For me I originally used the 35% off coupon and w/the new coupon only saved $12.45. I did get to chose a free product for $75 ...so that was exciting!

    Congragulations!

    So if I have my notebook, and im still within the return period, do you think dell would credit me or something?or did I misunderstand? Because with that coupon that comes tomarrow, (the $750 for Inspirons $1499 and up) i would save like $200 bucks. :(

    The coupon is expired so it doesn't matter any longer.
