I never trusted rebates, but since Staples boasts a special rebate website I thought it was reputable. I purchased an Epson color printer / color copier. It Makes PERFECT color copies. So I printed out the forms from the web on my new Epson. Colored copied ALL the receipts and placed the box right on the scanner for a EXACT Sharp copy of the UPC bar code.
I stapled all documents together so nothing would get lost. I mailed and waited.in 3 weeks I received a pre-printed post card claiming that the UPC bar code was missing. I have a printed copy of the form that states "Original or Copy of Bar Code" is acceptable.
I will resubmit with certified letter and duplicates. But I know they are stalling because I received a deadline.
I will post results.
All mail-in REBATES should be banned as false advertising, I have never gotten one.
