    deals? i'm not sure.
    so i was looking at these refurbished laptops from alliedtek (who somebody here on notebookreview mentioned gets stuff from dfsdirect (dell outlet canada)) and some ebay sellers. I wanted to see your opinions on these and if you know of any other good dell sellers out there, please share. It would really help!

    Jeez, these deals are rip-offs!!! why do out Canuck friends get screwed with this stuff?!

    If you are interested in a Dell Outlet deal, I would recommend you wait for a coupon, use it in the US Outlet with a 3 year NBD warranty, and get it shipped/brought across the border and then do an international warranty transfer. It is worth the hassle if you know someone in the States.

    I am recommending this because unless you buy a refurb directly from Dell Outlet, it has a real sucky and limited warranty, some times as little as 90 days.
