    These are recertified or used units. So some ones mommy ordered them an Alienware, and shortly after it arrives Timmy got a bad grade, so the Alienware went back to Dell. Or some one ordered the wrong thing and sent it back to Dell.

    What a horrible mother. She should have given it to her husband (or lover, whichever :p).

    I think so. They come with a full 1 year warranty and 30 day return policy. I bought an M11x R1 from there last year and sent it back twice no problems, all postage paid by them, and last unit was basically new.

    haha, really now? oh well, that's a great discount code! but no m11x's in the outlet to use it on haha. :p

    do these coupons work only for outlet units? not for ordering brand new items?

    If the code gets here, imagine how many others have it, you have to be ninja fast if you want something hot.

    The coupon code doesn't seem to work for me. The price stays the same. Am I doing it wrong?

    I had the same problem with it not working earlier. I gave up trying. >_< I wonder if there were too many people using the code, that Dell discontinued it?

    Dell codes expire after a specific date or number of uses, whichever comes first. The redemption limit has probably been hit, so it's rendered useless. You'll just have to wait until the next coupon code hits. Best bet is to follow the Dell Outlet on Twitter.

    Yes, it probably has expired. I used it last on the 29th of September.
