XPS 1330 goes *UP* in price?!

[tridium]

Base model went from $1199 to $1239 (http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/xpsnb_m1330?c=ca&cs=cadhs1&l=en&s=dhs). Yes, I know it's only $40, but since when do they start raising their prices?

Funny thing, they're still rotating the banner stating $1199 as the base model from the Notebook page.

High demand = higher prices

And it's back down now. Must've been a glitch.

I called them regarding the LED screen and they told me they removed the option because it caused a delay and customers were getting fed up. What a crock of **** because the US still has the option. I ordered from them and it was 3-5 days to build and 3-5 days to ship. Once again, Canadians get shafted. We don't even get the option for the LED screen!

What happened to the colour selection?? I was planning to order a green one this weekend as a Christmas gift for my mother. Scratch that, looks like I'll be getting her the Pavillion she's been hinting for :mad:

There was only a choice of black, white and red for the XPS 1330? Only the Inspirons have the other choice of colours.

Every time they send out discount codes, as a matter of fact.

They've sent out discount codes? I'm trying to hold out till the end of November to see if I can haggle a CSR down. I've got access to an EPP, but I want it even lower...
