New i5 R2 under $700

Hey guys, new to this forum. Been reading up on everything on this website and thanks to everyone keeping me informed

Anyways i bought a refurb $789 i5 r2 last week and i was upset that a sale came on while i was on vacation in Vegas and paid for everything total $850. Its still on its way EDD tomorrow. I contemplated in returning it and maybe take a 15% restock fee from Dell so i sold it to a friend of mine for same price.

So today after reading many reviews/problems/issues i finally chose in buying a m11x r1 for $599 from the website. I also have EPP capability since i work for a company giant, but the coupon code for $50 off online was not working at the check out page. So i clicked on Chat to ask about the coupon...

After asking the AW rep bout my dillema and i wish the $749 sale was still on, he nicely snapped me a link.....a link to the $749 promo. I asked him is this real? He said "yes"

So now being like a lil girl who won the cheerleading contest, i ordered me a M11x R2 i-5 8gb ram 350gb HD of sexiness for only $749, and he was nice enough to give me a $50 credit for it also on the coupon. Total $699!!!!(with tax and environmental fee = $766)

So just wanted to share this info, and it only works if you chat with an actual "alienware rep" not a dell rep.
