    Can coupons be used on system quotes obtained by sales agents?

    Hi everyone,

    I read a thread a while back about people calling Dell and negotiating with the sales agents and getting a system quote sent to them by email. I was just wondering, if I call Dell and manage to get a good quote sent to me, will I still be able to use the 15% coupon that I have? I'm ordering from Canada, if that makes a difference..

    Thanks,

    Faruk

    PS. I will be ordering the XPS m1330

    The sales agents seem to be able to apply coupons and offers that are advertised, and even some that seem to be unadvertised. As with all sales, the best way is to get as close to meeting face to face as possible, in this case, the closest is talking on the phone. At least you're getting an individual, who is probably on commission.
