Is Amazon version eligible for $20 Rebate from Microsoft? Does anyone know if the rebate works if you purchase it from Amazon?

The price on the Microsoft website is exactly $20 more than the price on the Amazon website, so it appears that Amazon is getting the benefit of the rebate and then passing it along to its customers.

its only a 10 dollar rebate. where amazon says $30, that is the price after the rebate.

if you bought it from a third party vendor and not from Microsoft Store , you can forget about it . I had a similar experience , I got the key from 3rd party Microsoft partner . They don't respond to mails or have any help desk , after MS r contacting MS , they said they cant do anything either and suck it up ! MS can only track if it was purchased from their store .

Does anyone know whether the full version purchased on Amazon is Vista compatible. The version from MS website is double the price.

Honestly, I cannot tell any difference. I called the Microsoft Store and they don't have different versions. Strange.

The listing from Amazon is for an original Microsoft OEM package, unopened, with an unused product key. When purchasing make certain you are buying the same item and not buying it used.

I just bought Logitech's V20 Notebook speakers with a $40.00 rebate (if purchased by the 28th-July). Are you saying they are not honoring the rebates? You have not been rebated?

Yes, Amazon came through. I just hope that the little phrase "Amazon reserves the right to change or terminate this promotion at any time." doesn't mean that they might/will change my pre-order in the future, i.e. decide not to include R3. ***Fingers crossed.***

I called and spoke to someone on the phone and they told me it has to be an Amazon purchase, however someone else asked this same question and there was a bit of discussion on the topic. I decided to buy the warranty here on Amazon and just give it a shot. They did accept my registration and my receipt from a product purchased somewhere else. I sent them a copy of my receipt as part of the registration and then called to confirm that everything was good to go. Personally, I'd much rather buy electronics here from Amazon whenever possible. The only reason I didn't buy my computer from Amazon was because they couldn't match the student discount I got elsewhere.

I printed my receipt from the amazon website, but didn't circle the price for the rebate (must have missed that in the instructions). Hopefully they can just read it off the receipt for the rebate. I read on one of the reviews that theirs came with a dvd. Did anyone get a dvd?

Here's the rebate form: https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/G/01/00/00/03/28/02/77/328027790.pdf

And if you DO NOT see the link St. Ananas describes, it's because you are looking at the product as sold by another vendor such as Crutchfield. Check the listing of other retailers at the right, Amazon should be in there - go to that page and you will see the link to the rebates. I also find that sometimes clicking the link doesn't work, but it is just a scroll away. Hurry, the rebate form has to be postmarked by 5/19/08.

I don't think so. At least when I purchased mine. There wasn't a mail in rebate available. Who's offering it? Amazon or RCBS?

Bonnie,It sounded too good to be true. But i just went to zipzoomfly. you are so right. the computer by itself is 377 and the drive alone is 65. both cheaper than amazon. combined them and it goes to 359 for 1005HA-P and 40 for the drive. basically a drive for 10 dollars over amazon. then if the rebate is mail in and you get back 30, then you get paid 20 dollars to get a free drive. wish I had waited another day to buy mine. I am waiting to see how amazon deals with this. at the very least they should sell the drive for 35-40 dollars to those who already bought a machine in July. Amazon is not going to be pleased about your post. Bonnie,It sounded too good to be true.

Bit the bullet at $1139. If the rebate you speak of comes tomorrow, i'm sure i'll be kicking myself. Would be $999 !!

I agree with what JayT said. I entered my code a day early and had no problems. If you're sure you entered the code properly, it could be invalid. I'd try to call Amazon customer service before Xbox Live Support, because it's easier to get through and Xbox Live folks might not help with a code not purchased through them.

I bought the same 15.4 2.4GHz laptop in June right in between the rebates were offered. I called Amazon and complained about the rebates being removed while I placed the order but re-appeared the next day. The refunded my credit card asap, much nicer then having to wait for the darn mail-in rebate to arrive. Thanks!
