A $95 MIR from TigerDirect? Uh, no thanks.

You won't have problem receiving $ 25 MIR and $ 30 MIR. However, $ 40 MIR may be problem. If you take a look at PDF form for $ 40 MIR, it says you need to provide proof of purchase of a security product from other company, like Symantec. So, if you already own one of the products from other company, then it's free. But if not, it's actually $ 40 AR.

Price is after 3 different rebates.

1 - $25 on the router.

2 - $30 on eTrust software.

3 - $40 on eTrust software with proof of upgrading from a competitor's software.

Jumping through quite a few hoops.

Tiger hoops.

Free is such a loaded word nowadays

hoops, oops. Most all rebates anymore require some form of user interaction. You peeps are too severe in criticism on TD. Off Topic, but who actually has be burned by them??

The only real prompt rebates are via Easy Rebates and Staples and KUDOS to them for implementing it (of course they've done so via receipt tracking and rebate fraud prevention - which was long overdue imho).

OM rebates often have to be called multiple times as they try denial frequently.
Remember Digital Research, the free Soyo Dragon mobo... I could go on, but most already know

anyway thanks for the post, and in this case deal involves tracking 3 rebates, 3 stamps, an possibly too much effort. ymmv

Username of OP should say it all...
Fishing, much?

 

[brownzilla786]

if you get 2/3 of those rebates it can turn into a hot deal...er maybe not, but if you get all of those rebates back it will be smoking
