Must be some confusion. Anyways, could you provide me with the UPC number and the date of purchase as well as the offer # or whatever else is relevant. I would appreciate it greatly. Thanks!
The UPC on my rebate receipt is listed as 829686000193. Purchase must be made between 3/19/04 and 4/4/04. Must send in original UPC bar code and be postmarked on or before 4/18/04.
The box the hard drive comes in is labeled as a 200gb drive, but when you install and format the drive it shows up as 180gb.
That's just the way hard drives are. Formatting the hard drive will take a couple GBs away. My 160gb hard drive only shows 152gb so you get the idea. Thanks for the info though. I think it's too different from my offer which was a one day sale at Fry's but maybe it'll help.
