Newegg.com - Evga rebate ripoff web page prices with rebate but rebate is not valid at order time Internet
*Consumer Suggestion: Beware of back to back rebate offers on products
Show customers why they should trust your business over your competitors...
I purchased a e-vga video card from newegg.com. This was ordered through the website where the price of the e-vga video card was listed with the rebate price. After 4 months, the rebate information site said the rebate was approved. After another 2 months of not receiving the check I checked back at the site to find that the rebate was declined becuase I had purchased the product before the valid date for the rebate!!
The website should not list the product's rebate price at the time of purchase if it is not valid at the time. This is very misleading and I believe unethical.

#1 Consumer Suggestion
Beware of back to back rebate offers on products
AUTHOR: Orion Antares - (United States of America)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, November 07, 2009
Newegg.com often runs multiple rebates on the same product back to back where one is valid for one month and the next is valid for the next month. They keep their rebates easily searchable on the site but when the old rebate is no longer valid for the current order date then the new one is displayed on the product page. If you just download the rebate form without checking the date, especially if you ordered at the end of one month and are filling out the rebate at the start of the next month, then you can run in to the problem of sending the wrong rebate form and having your rebate turned down.
