    I have purchased coupons from ebay in the past. This 30% coupon will take 30% off any system through dell eep, xps, latitude, inspiron etc.

    It looks like it is only for XPS systems, but is only valid in Dell's EPP section. I doubt you would be able to use it in their home section, but the systems are the same in both sections.

    I've used one of those exact coupons. It's good for 30% off any system over $999 through Dell EPP.

    All you need to do is go to Dell.com/epp and order it from that site. You'll need to say you don't have your member code and say you're a part of some other business, but they don't care. I've done it multiple times.

    I just bought a similar coupon on ebay about 30 minutes ago. it was the real deal!!!! I got an almost tricked out RED SE XPS M1710 for almost $1500 less then it would normally have cost. included in that price were the 3 year at home hardware warranty, 3 year accidental protection insurance and a $100 dell gift card to boot! im so happy right now! Anyhow, hope this helps.

    Is it possible to use the EPP discount program by login in to dell.com/epp and choosing the University option, and without being a College Student? ( http://ecomm.dell.com/dellstore)
    Is it possible to use an Epp Coupon sold in ebay on a purchase done with above mentioned EPP discount program?
    Summary:IS THIS POSSIBLE?
    *Dell EPP/FSS Customers: Save 35% off select Inspiron systems! (if possible without being a student)
    *12% off systems priced $1600 and up with 3/4 yr At-Home service.
    *Free Ground Shipping on select new Dell Inspirons!
    *SAVE $150 (After mail in rebate) w GOLD BUNDLE
    *Dell EPP/FSS customers: Save 30% off Dimension, Inspiron, Latitude, XPS $999 or more

    so would the coupon be compatible with the other offers mentioned?

    I'm quite certain the 30% wont stack with the 35% off. It only stacks with the 12% off

    That is correct. The 30% off is for EPP, the 35% off is for Home. 12% is available for EPP only.

    The EPP coupons should cover the XPS, Latitude, Precision, and Inspiron lines. The coupons published on our site only cover the Inspiron series, so if you are looking for a latitude, probably want to go check out eBay.
