By choosing the cheapest options you can get the laptop for £229, obviously a mistake so I doubt I will get the one I ordered but, hey, its worth a try isnt it?

The main chunk is "Dell™ TrueMobile™ Base Station TM2300 (-GBP - £320)", that must be a mistake - they'll be wanting +£320 for it!

They have corrected some of the items, Ordered mine for £75 including vat and delivery yesterday, could have been cheaper without wireless. Doubt it’ll ever turn up though.

Nice one. Ordered. Lets see what happens.

Just managed to spec it to £224. At that price its just rude not to take full advantage and order an excessive amount of laptops

Managed to get one down to £199.75 incl. VAT - too good to be true. If I order, will Dell bite me in the arse?

Er guys - has any one noticed that it is i the "public sector" section of the website?

[julianhj]

Is that a get out clause for them?

Not a problem one of my contracts is with just such a company.

Mine came to over a grand with lowish spec????

[julianhj]

I'm actually a public sector employee - could I use this if they try and back out?

The website is an "invitation to treat" until they send you a written confirmation that they accept your offer to buy and take your money, they don't have to sell you anything regardless of whether you are in the public sector or not.

[julianhj]

Yeah, I know they'll probably back straight out from £200 laptop deals. Still, worth a punt, eh?

[ywouldi]

Yeah, I guess the public sector thing could be a workout. Worth a punt though! I did a little (very little) research and apparently when dell did something similar in Asia they honoured the prices so we'll see?

Not a sausage. D'ya think they'll ignore us and hope we go away?

[nick heppinstall]

Probably. Ba$tards

[jacko lah]

My wife works in the public sector, I'll get her to order a few.

[NikB]

Cheapest I can get it to is ~£500. Have they corrected it now?

[julianhj]

Still not heard anything. Don't expect to, either.
