Reply to comment by Iz-kan-reddit in Dell’s Latitude 7330 convinced me that business laptops are too expensive by dapperlemon

Yes, but it means that the quoted price is 28% higher than the cost you actually pay. If they say a laptop will cost 1000, the actual cost is something like 750 for you. That means that higher prices on business laptops aren't entirely felt by the business customer - and if you are getting other stuff in the deal like on-site service, it's worth it.

What a dumb argument. They can expense both a $1000 laptop and a $2000 laptop. The relative difference is still going to be the same. Just because that $2000 effectively becomes $1500 doesn’t mean it’s less than the $1000, which effectively becomes $750. The $2k one is still twice as expensive.

You’re not. It’s an additional paid service. They only offer it on certain ranges of laptops, though.
