The whole rebate process is one big scam.

I had an experience with AT&T on a rebate with phone purchase.
I did everything correctly, and photocopied everything, fortunately.

They told me they were missing paperwork.
I told them, basically, they were full of sh*t.
Finally check arrived about a month later.

Is someone could start a business to facilitate the whole process and take a percentage cut, I bet they could make some money.

Regards.

Ken, I do a lot of rebates. I do them right after i buy the product, make sure I have the correct stuff(sales slip, UPC, etc), I make copies of everything that i send out. I am batting near 100% on getting rebates. In fact, i bought a brothers printer from buy.com, sent in the rebate. after several months had heard from brother, and buy.com credited me with the refund amount.
Its a bit of a pain, but when the rebate amount gets to $25, 50 or 100 bucks, its well worth it. larry
