Office Depot Rebate Ripoff El Paso Texas

My family is a low income family and we have always try to save as much money as we can. I have been wanting a computer for school for quite sometime now and when my mom got a loan, we were able to get a new computer. I was so happy that i was finally get a computer. We saw one (e machines) and it came with a free printer for $900 and with a $300 rebate ($50 for the printer and $250 for the computer). Well we got the computer. The next day I sent copy of the rebate forms. On the receipt it said that rebates can take from 6 to 8 months to be completed. Well we waited 6 month and sure enough there was a rebate for $50 dollars but no rebate for $250 I waited until the 8 months were over but still no rebate. So I called the rebate company which would be Office Depot not e machines and they said that they were still in the process and that it would take a month or two. So I waited and still no refund check. I called back and they said that they had already mailed the check out, but I told them that I haven't received it and that if they were going to do anything. Well they told me that the check would probably be there soon so to give it another month or two. I waited two more months and still no check. I called again to know of the status of my rebate this time they said that they didn't have it and that my file wasn't there anymore. I asked them what can I do and they told me that they couldn't help me since I didn't have a rebate form with them anymore. So now it's been almost three years and still no rebate and there is nothing that I can really do only warm other people that think that they are getting a good price after the rebate because the truth is that you really aren't you are just getting ripped off.
