TAP Declined

[StormRider]

After work, I stopped over at CompUSA to pick up that $9.99 (after rebate) wireless router and when the guy rang me up, he said, "Since this is on 24/7, would you like to buy our service plan -- it's only $8.99 for 2 years. If anything goes wrong you can just bring it in and we'll replace it".

I replied, "No thanks".

And the guy stared at me for a long time and said, "You sure?"

And I said, "yes".

Then he rang me up and put a big stamp, "TAP Declined" on my receipt and said, "this won't affect your rebates...".

Now, I'm wondering if it is some kind of secret code to the rebate handlers to reject my rebates...

Did you ask him if a girl's butt feels like a guy's butt?

Guess you'll find out in 32-96 weeks.

A TAP is just an extended warranty, like he offered. No need to think anything of it.

It's so that after 21 days you can't say they didn't tell you couldn't return it. It's to protect from idiots who try and return things on the 22nd day because it broke.

although that bestbuy online rebate thing was faster than i've ever seen. literally, in two weeks after filling out the form online, we had the check in our hands. crazy world. 🙂

Most companies don't allow them to do that. If I were you I would go confront the manager and get the DM's name. See what they'll give you :evil:
