I recently purchased one of these, and I thought I would send in for the rebate, but they want you to cut out the UPC...would that void the warranty?

No it wouldn't void the warranty. I registered my unit and when I was ready to send in the info I made a copy of the UPC and sent the original. You do not have to make a copy, but I wanted to have a backup if for some reason it was needed.

I really don't know if you can. I would advice you to stay off this company. They are fraudulent!!!!!!!!!! They don't even honor agreement with a new computer less than 3 months old not to talk of a refurbished one!

I can't find one on my box. Must have been on the flap that had the UPC code and I sent that in for a rebate. Sorry.

I am curious about the rebate as well I would like to buy this but not without the rebate.

Yes, as long as you do not probe it with foreign objects, that will void the warranty/guarantee.

The UPC codes were still on my box and I received the $300.00 rebate last year

I contacted Amazon Customer Service as well, and they insisted that I needed to contact TiVo. But since this is in regards to the rebate form THEY have on their site I refused to. After going several rounds with them and getting the same form letter response about the issue being TiVo's problem I said the heck with Amazon. Even after that they changed the wording on the item page but it was still linking to the wrong rebate form. But since I had found the correct rebate form on the TiVo site, I purchased the unit. I guess Amazon was not being shady... just stupid. And their "Customer Service" department can go lick themselves.

I've never bought a warranty that I was able to use. Warranties are a piece of mind comfort food but in reality, you'll never even get one bite. They'll always find a loop hole that says "oh, I'm sorry, had you only done this, you Would have been covered". And to use a warranty, you'll have to stay home from work while a tech comes out, time and time again. I always say, if a product is That good, you don't need a warranty. Just my 2 cents.

It is possible the people who purchase this was not able install it, may have trouble install it, maybe some comedic look is defective or it not what they thought. So we may not really know why it was return for what ever their reason is. The seller could resell it with a discount instead of a full price. For me you are saving a few bucks which a good way to go. I would think you should be ok and the warranty should be still being applied. It would be best to talk to the seller to ask them what is wrong with it and the warranty still apply.

I would call the manufacturer to get the answer to that question. If you call Amazon I am sure they can provide the phone number. You don't want to do anything that would void the warranty.

Their website mentions that rebate is not valid for wholesellers. I purchased the MX8 locally - called the dealer for his number. He said to enter "Leslie #535" on that line. 535 is the store number. He said that not one rebate has "come back" - His words.

You can try. They will do everything they can to not honor the warranty--a terrible company! I'd return it to Amazon if you bought it recently.

Uncle Reggie, most rock-bottom priced Canon PRO-100 printers do not come with the UPC code intact. The seller takes the rebate offer. The buyer still gets a better deal without the rebate. I certainly did! You will love the product. _LARS of Long Beach, CA

yes, I've asked twice and haven't gotten an answer. I've returned a recall unit. If I could get a clean one, I'd buy it. I think it's a very nice product. But, I for one, am not going to pay retail for a "fixer-upper". At a "refurb" price, I'd think about it, because units below ser 3114200 are exactly that - refurbs waiting to be refurbed. I'm going to wait another week to see if I get an answer, and then just get something else. Sigh.

Taylor P. Our systems do not use any proprietary parts, so you are free to upgrade anything you want, over the life of your system. And proper installation of new components does *NOT* void your warranty.

There wasn't any rebate when I bought it but it was already on sale for less than $20. You can email customer service and the respond they are good about it.

Yes. You wasted your money just like I did. Mine quit after a couple of months. They said to send it back to them and they would fix it for free. I boxed it up and took it to the UPS store. They wanted $300 to ship it from PA to California. The thing only cost $225 to buy new. Bought a replacement from Home Depot (different brand of course).
