Really Really Mad At Dell!!!

ok so i just got my notebook when i was supose to get it 2 monts ago and they gave me the freakin wrong computer!!!!! ok i order a xps m1330 and they gave me a inspiron 1521 is a great computer but its not what i orderd!!! i'm really upset cause i have been waiting for this computer for 2 months!!! are these computers the same thing? they look totaly different and i liked the m1330 look so i'm pissed can someone please tell me what to do!!!

 

LOL they sent you the wrong laptop? Call them up and say you want compenstation for waiting 2 months for the wrong laptop and want the M1330shipped to you immediately.

 

And for pity's sake, don't pay them yet!

 

will they take it back? my dad already setup everything before i got it.

 

That is incredibly tacky on Dell's part. Wow.

 

Wrong computer? Oh yes they will take it back even if you have to shove it down someones throat.

 

They will take it back for sure.

NOt only that, but tell them you want to use it as you need it for school or something, until you get the XPS back and you need to put a SUPER RUSH ORDER in to get the correct laptop.

 

Take everything you can before sending it back. If they question about it (like missing RAM lol) tell them. I have no idea, you guys built it.

 

lmfao... the funniest post i've read in a long time...

At that rate all they'll get back is the manual lmfao

 

Nah, I'll just recycle the manual. The instead of giving them back anything, I'll just state unforseen delays.

 

LMFAO! That's a genius idea. Considering they sent you the wrong laptop, I doubt they really know what's in it.

 

ooh that would be cool if i got an xps m1330 in the mail instead of my 1420.

 

BIG QUESTION!!!
ok my parents say i should just keep the computer that i have because they said that this you is better then a m1330!! so can someone tell me how the m1330 is better then the inspiron 1521?!? cause i know it is i jsut have to prove it!! thanks!

 

now way period.. the 1521 is a pretty basic computer unless lots was added even then it uses amd dual core i believe which no offense in any way to amd i like their desktop cpu's but the intel core 2 duo blows away their notebook ones

 

Easy solution: find an old Dell laptop around the neighbourhood. Then, ship THAT back to Dell and ask for the m1330. There, you just got yourself both laptops.

The m1330 is better than the 1521.

 

To the OP -

Your parents' hesitation to return a computer that's less than what they paid for tells me that the 1521 could be what they purchased. They may have promised you the 1330, but the 1521 could have been more in the cards as far as budget.

Resolution : Look at the receipt and packing list. If it details the XPS1330 on both of those, a return/exchange is definitely in order as the 1330 is a more high-end unit. If there is a failure to produce on your parents' part regarding the papers, I would just take a step back and be thankful for what you got.

Bottom line, check the facts before you proceed any further. It will save everybody the embarassment. If the latter is true, don't hate your parents either. Sometimes their desire to please their kids and grand kids gets the best of them.

Good luck either way.

lol.. do whatever you need to do to get your system. the one u ordered trumps the 1521 particularl in the price department, dont let them screw u over, handle it asap.

 

umm wow, sounds like your parents pwned you, I'm pretty sure they ordered the 1521 instead...how old are you by the way??

I'm sorry, this whole thread smells fishy. Dell sends you a laptop worth at least $500 less than the one you "actually ordered", yet mommy and daddy say go ahead and keep it??? LOL I don't think so

 

Its like comparing apples and oranges. They cater to completely different markets. 1521 is a very basic, cheap low-end model aimed for basic computing needs while M1330 is an expensive, stylish premium notebook loaded with everything need in a notebook.

If you look at current DELL prices, you’ll see that M1330 starts at $1499 and 1521 at $549 (without tax or discounts). That alone is a good enough reason to send it back. Moreover it is smaller (portable), weigh less, has a better processor, a better graphics card (depending on the configuration), has an integrated camera, looks stylish, and can be configured with a load of cool features like finger print reader, remote, better screen etc..

 

well, if you really ordered the 1330 and got the 1521, then, to quote from the movie 300, 'take from them everything, but give them nothing'

 

OP, very sorry for your trouble, hope it all works out.

please ignore rest of post.

You're suggesting a conspiracy theory? That's ridiculous. This isn't a crashed 747 or some Area 51 (hmmmm... ALIENWARE j/k). This is Dell delivering the wrong laptop. I don't see the whole conspiracy of the parents choosing the wrong laptop on purpose.

 

I've heard the same story from someone, too. Didn't get the details, could be the same person tho

 

No conspiracy. May have very well been just a misunderstanding on both their parts.

To the OP - take a breath, examine your paperwork, and proceed accordingly.

Good luck.

Good point might think that a 15" is much better than a 13"
