    Hello,

    I was recently viewing the Dell site of my country of residence, which is not the US.
    Considering this the prices should not be in dollars, this is not stated anywhere in the site but for example if I go to Dell Mexico prices are displayed in Mexican pesos, If I go to Dell Austria the prices are displayed in that local currency.
    But there is one specific country which the prices are just to cheap to be realfor the local currency, should I buy then? Or is Dell going to come to me and say that the prices where in dollars, although there is no U$ or something similar.

    What do you guys think?

    thx

    You should buy a Dell from the Dell.com site of your country of origin.

    If you buy elsewhere, certain aspects of your purchase (ie. warranty)..may not be applicable to you.

    As long as you have a *quote*/or purchase from a Dell Rep, and your purchasing sooner than the latter ~ that price should be honored.

    Cin ;) :)

    I would also add that they may not even ship it out... sometimes the higher costs cover things like customs and other taxes for your country (dependent on country), and then you'd have to order it from your country anyway.
