Tiger Direct
Fraudulent Rebates... Again!

Once again I was ripped off by Tiger Direct's phantom rebates.

About a year ago I purchased a thumbdrive that had a $20 rebate. I sent in the rebate with all the associated info and the manufacturer contacted me after several weeks stating that the barcode I sent them was incorrect for the rebate. When I was cutting out the barcode from the thumbdrive package I did notice the it was a sticker and not part of the original package. I called Tiger Direct and got the runaround and eventually gave up. Oh well. Mistakes can and do happen and I made the mistake of giving Tiger Direct the benefit of the doubt... So I lost $20.

So 3 months ago I purchased a SOYO package deal that promised $90 in rebates from SOYO. I have $0 to show for it! I never even heard from the rebate center www.onrebate.com which is owned by Tiger Direct. Nice cozy business arrangement. I am VERY careful when filling out the rebate forms and I know for a fact that I supplied all of the associated proof-of-purchase material.

To be fair I will tell you that I have purchased other item from Tiger Direct over the years and I have received the rebates. It seems that about P of the time the rebate is bogus. So if your buying ANYTHING from Tiger Direct you better be prepared to pay the full price and NOT get the rebate!
