Because they are almost always from Fry's and Microcenter and none are near me. Someone should provide a service for pickup and shipment for a small fee. Damnit!

The worst is the Rebates.....I mean really ......does anybody ever get money back?
Over the past decade I've probably done 150+ rebates and always got all my money back from them.The worst is the Rebates.....I mean really ......does anybody ever get money back?

They do the rebates so they can get your information for marketing purposes. It could be they sell that information to third party companies to target you for spam and junk mail.[H]adouken;1033551169 said:...I never understood why they even offer rebates...

well... up here in Alaska, we don't even have CompUSA anymore.
BestBuy FTW
I miss the days of Computer City
of course lots of people get em back you just need to do them correctlyThe worst is the Rebates.....I mean really ......does anybody ever get money back?
you have to keep in mind that rebates arent handled by the retailers but rather by agencys that the product's manufacturer pays to handle the rebates.I think people are forgetting Tiger's past with rebates. There most certainly was a time when they were WELL KNOWN for not fulfilling them, to the point they lost a favorable rating with the BBB and were under investigation by the Florida Attorney General.
Ummm CompUSA barely exists and TigerDirect controls its remains.
I've gotten all of mine back..sorry for your bad luck.
Same here. For the people who "never" get their MIR's back, that screams of user error.
I actually prefer to buy from a B&M when I have the option.

the way it works:
manufacturer pays certain amount -> rebate agency pays out -> customers that bought from retail
^^there is one around nothern va/dc area

You are lucky some of you have that option at all ...
The only store we have in the Nashville, TN area is Best Buy ..
Compusa Closed
Circuit City Closed
No Fry's
All I have is Online .......
Everyone should e-mail Microcenter and Frys and keep asking them when they're going to sell the i7 920 on their website for their sale price instead of in-store only. Because neither B&M store is even located in my state.

i have never not gotten one back...Im going on probally close to 20-25+ rebates
You my friend obvisously do not know how to follow directions. READ the Fine print. Fill the paperwork out before the deadline with all the REQUIRED details. Keep a copy of the rebate stuff and place it in a safe place.
My local CompUSA closed a while ago and now CC in the same shopping center is closing too. Can't say i'll miss either. But I do have a Fry's very close.You are lucky some of you have that option at all ...
