    sorry is this was alrady answered. i looked through 3 pages and didnt see it.

    i saw the dell epp discount + epp coupon. the place i work at has the epp #. so thats 12% off there, and i saw the epp coupon has ended. did anyone really get a 75% off coupon? if so that'd be amazing. i'd easily pay $100+ for one. but does anyone know if there will be a deal like this again? i want to get an xps m1710 and if i really did get 75% off you could just imaginge the price.

    Generally, the EPP coupons are 30-35% and are combinable with an additional 12% if you select the correct warranty. AFAIK, there is no way to combine them so you get 75% off. The most that you might be able to do is around 45% using fat wallet and DPA

    SG, there were coupons of up to 75% going around. It was very rare, but dell did have some 50 and 75% off coupons just last week. I guess they just randomly sent them to people! The 30% coupons were very common though.

    i was looking on another forum and they said it was only 75% off of $1000. that'd be awsome if it was 75% off the total price. a $4000 m1710 for $1000 insane.

    Exactly. As for paying 100 for the coupon, yeah right, like anyone would sell it for 100$.
    1500 is more like it.

    The 30% off were just going from $2-10 depending on who you purchased the coupon from. People on the slickdeals forum have reported the 50% or 75% off coupons and buying a notebook using it...
