Dell Laptop User Thread

Any of you Dell fan have noticed you can get fantastic deals online from US Dell website compared to the SG Dell website???

I just put together a mean 9300 inspiron for about $2000US but with rebates of about $750, the price was only $1250 excluding delivery.

Thats about $2100 Sing dollars.


Try that same mod on the Sing Dell website and the cost is about $3500

Eh????

Wouldn't it then be cheaper to buy from overseas and get it freighted to Singapore??

Any comments?

You cannot order from the dell us website if you are in singapore.
They only ship within USA.
US is the place where they launch the latest and newest models and asia only gets it later.
Im not working for dell but I do know some people from Dell.

Hi guys,

just got a dell inspiron 6000 which came with the Dell leather deluxe carrying case. I already have an existing carrying case. It is still brand new(in wrapping) so would anyone be interested in buying it from me. According to Dell the cost is about $70 if I am not wrong but open to any reasonable offers. Thanks a lot.

Dell 9300 and Dell 6000

Got my dell 9300 2day, my config : 2.0ghz/2048mb ddr2/100gb hdd/uxga true life/256mb go 6800/ bluetooth/ dual channel wireless module/xp pro/norton internet/dual layer dvdrw.

But then the nylon bag looks ugly to me thus ordered a new one from FCCB ExeGo.


This machine at this config really out do almost all the local market sets. I tried 3dmark mobile on all different brands like : Acer/toshiba/hp/compaq/nec 6000 and it outclass all my friends latest model notebook outright.

And of course the hefty price i had to pay for this config.

My second set is a Dell 6000 which also arrived 2day. My config:1.60ghz/1024mb ddr2/80gb hdd/Sxga 1680x1050/128mb x300/bluetooth/dual channel wireless/xp pro/norton internet/dual layer dvdrw.

This set also outdo all the above mention sets.

Thats a real shame then. Maybe I could get some buddies from US to ship it to Singa instead.

Even if you had to pay for freight and stuff, you are still saving yourself nearly 1k

$2100 for the machine that would cost you over $4000 in singapore.

Add maybe add $900 in shipping, and the end total cost is still only $3000.

Wow, I think i will buy my lappies from overseas in da future....

I think this only works because of the low US dollar vallue. Dunno if the saving is the same if the US dollar bounces up

just realised that the dell website is selling the carrying case for USD$99 and that the upgrade price (if you buy laptop from them) is about $70+ dollars. Have provided the link below for the details. Thanks.

I bought a cool backpack that is similar to the crumpler bag, shop owner says its the OEM for crumpler, bought it for $48... and my friends who bought the crumpler felt cheated... cause it felt the same... and smell the same too...
