:thumbsdown:
That rebate guarantee has more holes in it than Swiss cheese.

It's usually juniors & TD employees posting deals like this.

Ten thousand posts? Surely you came across one or two or maybe a few dozen TigerDirect rebate/order horror stories here at AnandTech in all that time?

There was a successful effort to get AnandTech to refuse TigerDirect advertizing $ because of what they did to so many of us, wasn't there?

These are some great deals .... however, because its TD .... that makes these combos luke warm at best. While some claim they've recieved rebates from TD just fine, there's enough horror stories to make me stay away no matter how good a deal it might appear to be.

I've come across a few dozen horror stories told by a friend of that guy who posts on some forum who heard it from his brother-in-law, and I've come across the same old worn-out BBB file documenting complaints from 1999 but no new complaints have been added since, which also states "However, the company has responded to most complaints presented by the Bureau."

None of which compare to the dozens of orders totalling several thousand dollars I've placed with Tiger Direct since I began patroning them in 1996 or 1997.

Umm...no. But thank you for saying please, now change the channel if you don't like what's on TV.

Ha-ha, $14 to ship a MB and a CPU. Yeah, right. I've shipped whole systems across the country for that much. Good deal if shipping was free and you get your rebate.

Please do not post tigerdirect in hot deals forum, this belongs in OT for guys to laugh at. thanks

Thanks for all the bumps, only 1 day left before most of the rebate offers expire (April 30).

I got a Jetway (Mach Speed) KM800/VT8237 S754 AMD64 motherboard for ~ $37.00 AR shipped that Newegg and Chiefvalue sells for $60.00 shipped!

Too bad there are rebates, if I could get that Chaintech nf3/sempron 2800+ for 110 with no rebates I'd be on that like white on rice.
