    Well, this is a request. Earlier today I was configuring my laptop (a dell e1505) and about to buy but I decided to wait till that night to get someone elses opinion. So, that night after getting a good opinion I went to buy it, (I had saved the coupon with Copy/paste), and then entered it in. I was all ready to buy, then noticed that my sub total didn't go down. So then I go over and it says the coupon isn't working because it doesn't meet the "requirements". It did earlier... So could someone please if they have a one time use coupon or something please pm or inform me any way possible? I would greatly appreciate it because otherwise this computer is out of my budget. Please help =/.

    Which coupon are you using? Is it one of the one-time use coupons? As far as I know, those coupons give a "this coupon has already been redeemed" error if they in fact have been redeemed. If you get the "requirements" error then maybe you overlooked something or you configured an e1505 with a different e-value code...

    That coupon works for me, I just tried it. I think what happened is you went back and customized a different E1505.

    When you click the link to customize a E1505, 3 models come up. The first one (most expensive) is not valid for the coupon. The other 2 are.

    Try this link directly, customize it to over $2000+ base price, and use the coupon again.
