My email said the coupon expires today - 11/07/07. You guys may have to wait for the next big Dell deal. This morning, I received their new small business email and there was no coupon code.
Funny thing is that we're all excited about "saving" so much on these cameras, but we should all remember that Canon built in an artificial $500 premium at the last minute. These prices just go to show you that no one is losing money.....
Dealer net is $3960, of course dealers can get some discounts on top of that. Last I checked, if you pay with the order Canon will give the dealer 4%. Large volume dealers will get other incentives as well. So, there is no doubt Dell is taking a beating on this one!
Sometimes you do get a bargain from Dell. They just updated their home site to show a discount on lenses. They are selling the Sigma 120-30mm f2.8 cheaper than I have seen any reputable store in the last two weeks. Too bad I don't have a coupon for that

Matt when did you order, and what was the original est. ship date?
I'm not sure why my last reply isnt on the screen, but I ordered it the 5th, I was given an estimated shipping date of 11-29-07 and according to DHL tracking it will be at my house on the 11-8-07 which is tomorrow.
Also order one to day. Shipping date for camera also shows as 12/3/07.
I looked all over e-bay for a stackable coupon wasn't to be. I did manage to get one thought 20% stackable. So that 20% off of the $4049.99 to bring it down to $3239.99 plus $243.00 tax, ended up being $3482.99.
I purchased a discount coupon off e-bay that gives a 20% discount but it isn't stackable so the cost is $3559.99 before taxes. I didn't use it online so it is still usable for half of what I paid if anyone is interested.

You may want to do a phone order, in which case the salesperson might be able to stack it for you.
