No more rebates

As an accountant, I've purchased quite a bit of computer equipment over the years and I've decided I will no longer purchase anything with a rebate attached to it.

I purchased a monitor from Micro Center with a $50.00 rebate attached to it. The rebate program was administered by the The Express Group. Not only have I not received the rebate, I can't even reach the bozos to bitch about it since the website you are to go to check out your rebate's status is now down and no phone number exists.

I did a google search on The Express Group. The hits were all complaint oriented and numbered in the hundreds.

I've effectively been ripped off of $50.00.

So in the future you can keep all your rebates, points, cards, etc.
