    I am thinking about getting the xps 1530, is there ever any coupons or sales on them?Also is through going dell directly the best way to get one, any other places with better prices, costco has them with better return policies but they seem to be abit more expensive.

    Very rarely do XPS coupons come out.

    That's Inspiron only.

    You missed a huge one about a week ago =\. The XPS line probably won't stay in its current standing for long so sometime within the next couple of months there will probably be a pretty good sale.

    I got my XPS M1530 when it had the 25% off deal, and it came out to be only $1283.48 total after tax and shipping, saved like $460 =)

    There are sales/coupons all the time. If you are in no hurry to buy, then wait. Check some Dell coupon sites and Dell's site every day. Be ready to buy when a sale comes along.

    Good luck.

    They NEVER have any significant good discounts for the XPS line. Yes, they have sales all the time for Inspirons, but not XPS. The biggest coupons that have come out, is the 25% off coupon that started the last week of april and lasted throughout all of May and the first week of June. However, that coupon doesn't seem like its coming back. I suggest waiting for a few days. If it doesn't show up by the end of this week, chances are, its dead and you have missed out on the biggest deal Dell ever had for the M1530 (Aside from the one EPP 40% off discount which happened only during the last week of April)

    I think you have missed the opportunity train considering the 25% off XPS coupon hasn't resurfaced yet, but theres always hoping. My advice for you is to jump on the deal once you see it. It is getting closer and closer to Montevina and once that comes out, you WILL NOT see a 25% discount or any significant discounts whatsoever. You will be shelling out a much greater portion of moolah.
