    Hey,

    I tried logging in to see this product, but it doesn't show up on the list. There's no 4th item on that list. There's just three when i click on "view models" under "Y550 Build-your-own mobile media".

    Also, I tried finding the product directly on lenovo.com and found this. It doesn't seem to have the sale and when i tried entering the coupon code after adding it to the shopping cart, I get the following message

    Coupon not valid for current shopping cart.

    Do you know what the problem could be?
