It should be in the ballpark, but can't confirm until I get the inventory passed to me. I have been assured they are working on them today. I also have them processing plenty of other stuff as well.

I ordered one the Dell Vostro 15 3000 Series (3558) .
Is this a decent machine just for web browsing, watching video's, etc...
Upgrading from an old Dell 2520, that's getting painful for browsing, but after doing a bit of reading, I'm not too sure about the Vostro.
Would an E5550 be a better pick that would last me longer?
Any opinions would be appreciated.
thanks!

So are they all gone? I never even saw one.
Ah, now I see them. However, unlike pre-BF, there are no 1080 screens and ssd models. Were there any, or did they sell?

I don't see any with SSD or with FHD displays. Looks like another couple may get posted tomorrow, but they are also 500Gb SATA HD and HD display, and Grade B cosmetic.

Consider ordering one from Bauer (http://forums.redflagdeals.com/bauer-sy ... e-2167072/). They have quite a few that are FHD touch screen with 128SSD. Priced at $390 makes them very competitive with Dell Refurbished.

I need a 15 inch laptop, and the E5550 with 1080 screen sold on Dell Refurb before the sale. At the moment I have my eye on this E5550 i7 Touch through refurbio on ebay for $504 incl shipping. It less expensive than the store (why is that?). E5550Jonstar1 wrote: ↑ Consider ordering one from Bauer (http://forums.redflagdeals.com/bauer-sy ... e-2167072/).

On the Bauer website I would consider line 188 (E5550 with touch for $390) and replace the 128 ssd with a 500gb one, but I'm wondering if an i5 5300u is long in the tooth, and therefore worth the $100 for the refurbio i7 (benchmarks look similar).
I would appreciate some advice, or something else on Bauer. I keep showing laptops to my wife (an editor), and she keeps saying the screen is not bright enough (new E580, for ex, or the Swift 3). If I don't get one soon I'm just going to LD and getting the Asus S 530 for $869, which is at the top end of limit.

Just go XPS or customized P52s or X1 to get brighter screens.

Hi John - ordered yesterday morning and have not heard about shipping - isn't it 1 day delivery?
