    I see it mentioned on here and elsewhere online, that haggling with a sales rep is a good way to shave off some extra $$$.

    1. What did you say?

    2. How much did it save you?

    Thanks!

    it seems that this is the holy grail of how-to-get-a-discount

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/alienware/456885-aw-dell-ordering-advice-how-save.html

    after I read up on this, I need to find a lenovo rep who is happy to work in commission!

    built a configuration and called in using the above "manipulation" advice.

    already had an epp discount so it was tough but sales rep managed to help me out with a small additional discount. I think more can be had but at the cost of time and integrity =p
