Tiger Direct-Onrebate.com rebate ripoff Miami Florida

I sent in several rebates in September 2005 and Onrebate paid all but one 40.00 rebate that states on the site the documents were never received. I also submitted a rebate in December for a monitor which has a white spot on almost the middle of the screen for $95.00 which Onrebate site states awaiting paperwork. Supposedly my mail is "lost", which I wrote to both companies and let them know that my mail seems to never get lost unless I am filing for a rebate. I also wrote my return address on the rebate envelope so if it actually did get "lost" I would know because of the returned envelope. Tiger Direct offers a rebate guarantee if you go to the post office and pay for proof of mailing. I did not do so. So now I am out $135.00. I wrote emails to them both and told them how I felt about it since I know and they know that I cannot possibly prove they actually received the rebates that were "lost". So rebate buyer beware! I may not get the rebate but I think they are dishonest and unethical. If enough people complain then maybe the Attorney General, or the Better Business Bureau will look into their "lost" mail..I for one think rebates should be canned! A product is not cheap if they never send the rebate! I was not too surprised to see all the complaints here about these companies after what happened to me
