Just a thought, but why bump a 1+ day old thread to the front page if it's dead? I just wasted 5 minutes reading all this sh*t ...

I hope I receive it before the rebate expires.

why is that necessary?

UPC for the rebate:roll:

If you were ordering it now, and it must be -----"PURCHASED"----- by Novemeber 13, why would there be a problem about getting it back in time? It does not say "must be mailed out by November 13." I suggest that you read it again. :roll:

I had an ETA of Nov. 19th but I just went to check my order... and it has disappeared. Gone... just like that. Anyone else?

Well, after an automated call saying the 1GB drive wouldn't be shipped until the 19th... It arrived at my door a few minutes ago!
:D

Bring on the rebate!

What does your order status say online?

My thumb drive is not scheduled to be sent until January 4th. That is way past the 1-month-after-purchase deadline the rebate requires.

I contacted Dell via email, and they offered me a $35 coupon for my trouble to use on my next purchase -- even if I cancel the thumb drive order.

Sometimes it pays to be a squeeky wheel

WTF? You got yours already? I ordered mine 5 days ago and they are saying the drive is backordered. When did you order your drive? What was your order number?

My order status shows it was shipped. I placed my order back on 10/24/04

$20 rebate

Must be postmarked within 30 days of purchase date, of course I bought it 11/8.

Mine arrived 12/13 which is past 30 days. So I'll be doing a RETURN TO SENDER since the $20 rebate is no longer valid.

i canceled my order on december1st and they still sent it to me (arrived december 14th), what do i do?

so you think they will still honor the rebate if i call them and explain what happened with the appropriate documentation, such as order date, and ship date and shippping receipt?
