Graham,
Your efforts are quite simply
unbelievable
you have gone to extreme lengths to make this deal happen and for that, I
am
sure I speak for all, we cannot thank you
enough.
All involved in this purchase owe you
a
debt of gratitude and a big pizza followed by lots of free
beer!
K.

Bulk
Purchase (last post here)
This
discussion really should move off the list and I appologise to those of you
not involved with the bulk purchase. However, just to let everyone
know my
intentions, I have not given up yet. I consider that this deal, if
possible, is
worth it even if it does cost everyone a few quid more (particularly as
they
are now $199 from Dell). I am only considering going over to the US because
I
can cover the cost (of a short trip) by avoiding sales tax and other
shipping
and handling costs. The stumbling block at the moment is Dell's inability
to
deliver on a set future date, regardless of notice period. I have offered
to
pay up front, and to name a delivery day only when they confirm that all
units
are ready to ship, but they can't sort this out. They are basically saying
that
I place the order and they deliver as soon as they can, this is of no use
to me
without a permanent delivery address. If anyone has any ideas here then let
me
know (off list) in the mean time I will keep trying. If anyone wants to
pull
out then I will understand, but you must tell me as soon as
possible.
