Beware of Rebate offers from Nova Development (owner of Parallel Desktop) Guess what?

I had the same problem. After purchasing Parallels 2.5 in March 2007 from Amazon and carefully sending in all the requisite materials no rebate appeared in my mailbox. A call to Nova informed me that they had indeed received my materials, but one item was "missing" (they claim the UPC from the retail box) and thus no rebate. Parallels is a decent application, but I don't believe that Nova is honestly fulfilling their rebate offers. Caveat emptor!

I purchased 2 of them for $69.00 a piece at my local computer store "Generation D" ...Sounds like that supplier ripped you off at $300.00 ea. Try to get your money refunded if you can from those jerks.

No success ... called and was told it arrived too late. Complained and was finally told the rebate was approved. Never received $20 rebate. Website still shows rebate unapproved. Waste of time talking to these people. Seems they tell you what you want to hear if you persist, but then do not follow through with what they tell you. Won't buy another ASUS product with a rebate attached -- not worth the trouble. Amazon should do something about rebate cheaters like ASUS.

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.

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

My guess-- and it's only a guess-- is that there is a current $30 ASUS rebate available if you buy the 1005 together with an ASus DVD drive. (See the J&R; site) Amazon doesn't mention it.

No, New Egg had this offer a few months ago. Apparently the memory was not compatible with the MB anyway.

i'd love to know also, i would buy at that price, but the rebates are clear that you can't apply multiple rebates per purchase, Amazon are misleading people into purchasing by stating there is $450 in rebates available. Maybe Amazon would have to honor that if that is what they are stating?

Yes, but a word of warning - if you're looking to get a rebate from them for this card, their terms are substantially different from all the other manufacturers out there. The net result is that you only have a couple days to send in your rebate form. The fact they aren't very upfront about that has basically caused me to swear off MSI as a company, given that pretty much all graphics card manufacturers are interchangeable these days.

I had no problem getting the rebate. It took a long time to get it but I did recieve it. I am not sure why people are having a problem with it unless they didn't follow the directions.

I had the same thing happen. I bought the drive on July 28th and the rebate form is from 8/1/10 to 8/31/10. I downloaded the rebate form that was linked on the product page and sent it in and got denied for my troubles. I'm going to try to see if there was a July from that I can fill out and send in.

No. After installing and registering I was unable to do anything without doing what they claim is a upgrade for a reduced one time only offer of @. 36.00. They said that without this needed upgrade it wouldn't be able to be used. At this point I believed I was being scammed and refused to pay what amounted to extortion. So needless to say it was useless to me after spending considerable amount of time

I contacted them aswell and they told me they would Contact me within 48 hours and they didn't. At first they told me to try the rebate then they told me not to and to wait. I don't like having $150 in limbo. Also now they changed the rebate information on the link page for the rebate to say July 3, 2006 even though the rebate expires June 3, 2006.

The $50 thing was a special limited time offer. $120 is the actual price of the upgrade. Snooze you lose!

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, when I saw the rebate had gone I took them out of my cart and re-added them to try to get it back, but it didn't work. Is there any way to get it back?

I'm sorry, but that isn't helpful. Details? How did they cheat you? What claims did they make to deny you a rebate. How did they differ from what you were promised. Has Amazon responded to any contact you've made? Just saying you were cheated doesn't give the independent reader any way to judge the merits of your claim or any information on why Amazon's rebates can't be trusted.

I get two full applications. $112? That must be an error. I paid around $14.
