    From what I understood to be the case, EPP coupons are supposed to be stackable. However, when I use the EPP coupon of 12% off and $150 with the Gold Plan it doesnt allow me to apply the $750 dollars off $2k purchases or even the smaller coupons. Am I missing something?

    Thanks

    You may just need to call up Dell EPP Sales and ask them.

    The most obvious that comes to mind is:

    1. Where is the 750 off coupon originating from? If you are talking about the current Dell Home coupon - then it isn't going to be applied to Dell EPP sales. Home and EPP are two different channels.

    The 12% you are talking about isn't really a coupon - it's a discount that is automatically applied if you select the Gold/Premium Warranty options at the start of a EPP sales configuration.

    Not sure where you are getting the '$150 with the Gold Plan' from....

    Call up Dell EPP - they will clear it up right away...

    Also - keep in mind - if you are configuring an XPS lappie - no coupon (home or EPP) is going to work - only the 12% discount.

    Peace.

    Interesting. I was trying to apply the current Home discounts to the EPP store. Do $750 EPP coupons exist? I was reading a post which I believe was titled "Is this E1505 worth it?" and the person applied a $750 dollars coupon on top of 12% on top of $150 off. Where can I find these EPP coupons?

    Thanks
