Same thing happened with me. But I had sent both end flaps, because it
said to
send the flap without the barcode. The said to send a printout of the
serial #.
You cant print out the serial #. I sent the cover page from the owners
manual
and a printout of something, I dont remember. I also sent a scathing
letter
telling them I would notify all newsgroups of which I was a member. I
also said I would never buy another thing from them and neither would
anyone I knew. Inthe same mail a couple weeks later I recieved a
postcard saying my rebate had been rejected. Also on another card was a
rebate check for the correct rebate. Now when I go to a store I tell the
clerk I wont buy anything with a rebate. Sometimes you have to pull
some teeth.
