Unregistered Guest Posts: n/a	I have always wondered about these mail in rebates. 1. How long does it take until you get the $ after you send in the rebate? 2. Can you buy 10 (or 100 ) sticks and use the rebate for all 10 or is it only valid for one item?

1. Usually 6-10 weeks from point of mailing in rebate.

2. Usually the rebates are limited to 1 purchase per household name/ address. I have seen some for 2 items, but none are unlimited.

ronko01 Guest Posts: n/a	Buy.com Rebate Has Tracking The $54.99 128MB Lexar Memory Stick has a $15 (limit 2) mail in rebate. Buy.com also qualifies this purchase for free ground shipping. I bought one last year and they e-mailed me that they were going to overnight for free (additional promotion at that time). It was received the next day. I sent in the rebate about two weeks ago and the company processing them has a tracking/support Q&A web site www.rebateshq.com which I just checked and the system acknowledged qualifying and in final processing. Should comfort anybody concerned about rebates and the status while waiting for the check. Nice deal $40 final cost, NO $4 to $8+ s&h. Ronko

As far as I can tell, what happened was: I ordered a 128M memory stick on 12/31/02, because that was the last day of the special deal at PCmall...I thought. I must have downloaded the rebate form the next day, when a NEW (but identical deal started), so the form said 1/1/03-3/31/03 or some such. I can't find the earlier rebate form at PCmall now or at the rebateHQ center. I don't suppose anyone saved the file on their computer and could email it to me?
