You are asking a relative experie3nce question first right? I would say ask that question of someone who has done a few-many rebates first. Like have they had 100% of their rebates come back? What percentage you got ~V~ not????? Have you got a rebate recieved and paid with this particular vendor?Originally posted by: jm0ris0n
Do these rebates usually come back ?
i just received mine a few days ago.Originally posted by: darklyte
Be careful about this product, I bought it and it does not work with Windows XP despite trying all sorts of things. I can get it to work for a bout 5 minutes sometimes, but it shuts itself off or freezes and just doesn't work overall.
I also tried using it with my Tivo and the Tivo did not recognize it at all.
I hope the rebate comes back because I did not try this thing until after the return policy was up.
IF anyone has any suggestions on how to get it to work in XP I am listening and would be glad to be proved wrong.

pcclub are scumbags!
The way they do business it seems they are related to tiger direct somehow.
I had called and asked if they have it in store and they said yes.
Drove there they had none!
Payed cash for store pickup and was promised one.
Drove to the store again and they had none!
Manager starts badmouthing frys and other stores, how THEY treat customers (?!), but offered no remedy except of the same promise as above. Oh yes, and a much more expensive unit (w/o rebates).
I filed complaints and put some feedback for them.
Typical bait & switch.
Avoid!

One week! And they had promised me to put one away for me (because I had payed already). And one of the clerks told me that they had received quite many.Originally posted by: gwlam12

how much time was there between choosing instore pickup and actually going to the store?
No, I specifically asked them if it was OK to pick it up on that date, because I pass that store only 2 x a week on my weekend trips.Originally posted by: gwlam12
maybe theres a time limit for u to pick up ur order. i know buy.com is 48 hrs or something

I am sure it is a YMMV, I have been playing with the PCMCIA card (WIN 2K) and it has been working just great with my Dlink 614+. While my DWL 122 gives me better connection and slightly better download speeds, I have no complaints about the PCMCIA card.
The rebate is a totally different ball game. I just sent mine in, attached all the paperwork etc. And will bug the heck out of them till they send me my rebate, but PCClub did a pretty good job in sending the card over on time. Ordered it online, had it installed on the 3rd working day. $6.50 Shipping within CA.
So if the rebate comes in, definitely a GREAT deal!
