    Does dell do many coupons on the xps series?

    I was almost going to buy a 1520 like a month ago but they didnt have the intel wireless n card and they had $425 off a $1399 or more.

    Anyway my question is the M1530 i priced out which is the equivalent of the 1520 i was looking at comes to $1,594. Thats out of my price range without any coupons.

    Does dell ever offer any bigger coupons on the XPS ever? A $425 off coupon on the XPS would be terrific.

    Dell is currently having an instant savings on the xps m1530 at just over $600 on Dell U.S. and that is probably as good as you're going to get. It is a great deal considering the premium that comes with XPS. XPS coupons in general are rare to come buy than inspiron or vostro coupons and I am surprised that Dell has been discounting them so nicely lately. Probably because of the holidays.

    opps i see what you said but using that coupon or not somehow it comes out to the same price. You get a little more for that price but the total is still $1500 once you add the higher resolution.

    i tried it again it seems the only difference witht he 600 off is that the entire 600 only added an extra 2 gigs of ram for that price. weird. But the damn $200 off coupons are expired.
