    I have been checking everyday for a while, but finally some XPS 1530's have shown up at the outlet. I didn't find any totally amazing deals but at least they are finally their and you can save a little bit. Hopefully if I just hold out a little longer I can finally afford the XPS I want! yippee

    They're probably all the ones with the bad screens that everyone's been returning.

    The ones in Dell outlet are one of three things. Refurbs (that were broken but now work like new), New (previously ordered) and Scratch and Dent (usually a very minor scratch / ding). I'll be keeping my eyes open for XPS m1330 and 1530 deals.

    BTW if anyone wants a Dell Outlet 15% off code, PM me. I have a couple.

    I just looked and the lowest priced one was $1000. But with the 15% code it would only be $850.

    Coupons are gone! Don't PM me anymore...
