My sales reps are faster than the premier site (I avoid that site at all costs, like I ranted about earlier).
Many times I'll just email them the part numbers and tell them to quote/order it. And like others said, I get great deals from working with reps. ESPECIALLY if it's near the end of the quarter for them. We actually track this and time many of our purchases around it. -Sam -----Original Message----- From: Ben Scott [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2011 9:31 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: OT: Dear Dell On Mon, Jun 6, 2011 at 2:50 PM, Jonathan Link < <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected]> wrote: > Also, if you fail to do that, please at least quote the order > correctly the first time.

Standard Configurations can mean you only build your configs once. I hold the belief that generally all vendors and contractors are basically incompetent, so eliminating a human from the process is usually a win. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ < <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: <http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/> http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
