    I was wondering if any sager reseller offers a student discount and how significant that would be. I looked all over xoticpc.com and couldn't find anything.

    It is best for you to directly contact a vendor to inquire about their discounts.

    It can vary from vendor to vendor... as well as from one customer to another for price negotiations.

    I believe XoticPC's student discount is 50% off shipping costs... you should contact Justin@XoticPC (here on NBR) for the fastest response. :)

    Usually, they'll just give you free shipping. It's best to just ask them. Go on line to their website and click on the Live Chat link. They are very helpful. I've not ordered anything personally from XoticPC but have gotten on live chat to ask tons of questions. Justin and his crew are very helpful. No sales pressure at all.

    Well that's one. Other times there's 100$ off, a special remote,free upgrade to whatnot, etc.
    You always have to keep an eye out.
