    I want to purchase 2 Dell laptops from dell.com. I will be purchasing the laptops with my credit card. However, one of them is for my sister and she goes to college and she is not home till a few months and will not be here. I know i can purchase the laptop she wants from dell and ship it to her upstate. The other laptop is for me and obviously its shipped to my home address.

    Does this need to be 2 separate orders since one of the laptops will go upstate and one to my house? I am assuming even if u buy the 2 laptops in one order, the shipping would be the same sincne its 2 differerent destinations right? Would it be cheaper for shipping if i bought it together or would it be same price if i have it sent to different destinations.

    I want to get studio 1558 for me and inspiron15r for sister.

    Dell offers free shipping - especially for the prices of the systems that you intend to purchase. I suggest you make two separate orders.

    Vendors usually require that the shipping address match the billing address of your credit card. You should talk to Dell sales and get theiir specific advice.
