When i first heard about this deal I went straight to Buy.com and bought a TDK burner.
THEN I read the post detailing why I "may not" get my rebate from TDK. The reason I say "may not" is because even after a call to buy.com I'm still not sure if anybody knows what they are talking about. The CS I spoke to said they "should" honor the rebate.
Bottom line: If i send in the UPC code and it's an unqualifying reciept I'm screwed. I can't get my UPC back, so instead, I went first thing this morning to CompUSA and bought the same TDK burner. I will send a copy of that reciept in with the rebate When the buy.com burner comes, I will return it un-opened to CompUSA.
Now before anyone flames me about anybody ripping anybody off, FIRST, CopmUSA is getting an un-opened burner back so no harm there, AND I get the $50 bucks from TDK like I expected in the first place.
End of story.
