I've ordered a 'scratched or dented' XPS M1530 from Dell Outlet on eBay for £530 delivered with a very decent spec:
CORE 2 DUO T8100 2.10GHz
8xDVD+/-RW Slim Slot-Load Drive
320GB HD SATA (5400rpm)
2.0mp camera
Intel 4965WLAN Mini-Card EUR
3.0GB MB (1X2GB + 1X1GB) 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
15.4 WXGA Widescreen (1440x900) TFT with TF
256MB NVIDIA GeForce Go 8600M GT
English Genuine Windows Vista SP1 Home Premium
Just got to wait and see how bad the cosmetic damage is ...not that I'm too worried
