Re: Dell has the N900 for as low as $442

do you guys think i have a case? If any one gets theres from dell at that price then i will pursue further action. Or is this a lost cause

Re: Dell has the N900 for as low as $442

oh i do have a preorder at newegg but its for $608. the only good thing is that newegg is like 10 min from my house so it will be like i get overnight but that extra $130 would have been cool

already have (2) 1920 mah batteries waiting for this bad boy

Re: Dell has the N900 for as low as $442

Keep the faith, but say 1,000 got the deal, that would be $158,000 less revenue and a loss compared to filling $600 orders.

Dell does not manage as an aggregate, each area is a profit center, including Small Business phones. They would be seperate from computers, printers, etc.

This error is not a small one from that perspective. ;)

Keep faith alive! :)

BTW, their marketing manages these deals. Do you think the manager over this will eat this loss if he or she can avoid it?

Think about it. Heck, now I worried myself :(

Well, you don´t really have a "case" as such. They´ll quote you some reason e.g. denied credit card or something or put you on endless hold and pass you around.

I can´t tell you how much time I spent to make AT&T drop demanding a $500 deposit on my account when I added line number 3. (Short credit history in the US due to having lived here less than two years, but being their on-time paying customer all that time) After telling them I was not interested in acting as a lender to them at 0% interest and being passed to a supervisors supervisor, threatening to leave with my $150 monthly bill they finally said ok. But it was almost not worth the time. The only way some of them might understand customer service is by just saying AMF to them and going to a competitor. (Adios Mother F**ker)

Sometimes you have to ask yourself if the view is worth the climb.
