New Alienware Q3 2020

Super. The post I made a while back about the delivery company that was **** locally was DHL. I had a delivery earlier in the year that was "attempted" three times, ended up with a complaint and a cancelled order.

Fingers crossed I get someone else!

There is a software called Dell Display Manger that you can search and download. Not used it myself yet

Q. Does Dell Display Manager work on all brands of Monitors?
A. DDM works only with Dell monitors developed from 2013 and beyond, except Dell D-series and Nvidia G-SYNC based models.
 
From the Dell website:

A: DDM works only with Dell monitors developed from 2013 and beyond, except Dell D-series and Nvidia G-SYNC based models

But it’s not a dell monitor technically, although a few AW models are listed, and it is a Gsync model so presume it won’t, as it’s not one of the ones listed.

My package is now with DHL but it is expected to arrive tomorrow! I know someone who lives in Scotland and will get his AW3821DW today. How is this possible xD
 
hmm interesting development the tracking says due for delivery Thursday 3rd December but at the bottom it has this

02nd December 2020 08:36 Your parcel 399991914xxxxxx is out for delivery
02nd December 2020 05:59 Your parcel 399991914xxxxxx is at the delivery depot
02nd December 2020 00:13 Your parcel 399991914xxxxxx has been collected

from ordering stuff from amazon US DHL always deliver afew days earlier than the estimate
so maybe i might be ascending today after all
 
Who else has their parcel at Docklands? I wish I can just go get it myself.

Another happy news for me is that I initially used 10% discount on AW3821DW. I called Dell today to whine about forgetting to use the Dell Advantage 20% discount. Turns out I was able to negotiate for 100 pounds reimbursement to my debit card! (They thought they could low ball me with 60 pounds!) Although it doesn't equate to the full 20% I should be entitled to get, it's better than missing out another 130 pounds I could save from buying this monitor!
 
Mine went from "You are the next delivery" to "Delivery driver could not get access to your property, they will attempt delivery tomorrow"! I was sitting there waiting for it!

Turns out that my flat number hadn't made it onto the packaging for some reason so he came to the address, saw there was 5 flats and left! I was very confused so picked up my phone to call DHL only to see 2 missed calls and my phone on silent so he had tried to call me to check which flat it actually was!

He was good enough to come back a few minutes later with it so it worked out but there was certainly a mild panic :)
