[Curiosity]

Lets see what we have here ..... :cheesygri

[sxz]

Wow 512MB Kingston USB drive for $30 AR! BB seems to have better deals than FS this year.

[SupraRzTT]

Thanks again

[Div]

Very nice.

[7jai]

WOO HOO! awesome its up!

[wlee]

WOW :!: THX :lol:

[mahjongmaniac]

thx again!

the USB drives are pretty good after MIR...

but :(... MIR again...

also there's that Pioneer DVD burner for $50... think i'll get this or the Benq (FS)

[wesleyw]

Only if the MIR are IR, then they will be hot.

[jshebib]

interesting, big emphasis at both FS and BB on TVs, almost no video games on sale - and not that great a deal on ps2 or xbox (refurbished) at $159.

think it was the same/similar last yr... not much for video game deals....

[Div]

The 20 gig Toshiba Mp3 player for $250 seems like a decent deal.

TVs should drop very fast this year with all the LCDs

[takumi86]

wow thanks for the flyers RFD!

[TheGame]

things just slowed down :(

[yell0w_c0w]

Server is bombarrrded !!! lol

[TinyTank]

can we purchase items before boxing day, than return to store after boxing day to price match (w/ boxing day flyer)?

[frogger]

Maybe a little too HQ considering the speed.

[Timsta]

I'm more interested in seeing the prices on the TV's they haven't mentioned in the flyers. They say everything is marked down, so I'm hoping there is some good instore deals.

[Shaner]

I like the FS deals better. The WD 250 GB HDD is amazing!

welcome to RFD!

[Binden]

we need mirrors stat

[Corizzle]

I wonder what other DVD Box Sets are buy 1 get 1. That's really the only thing that shows up to me as something I would get. HDTV still out of my price range...

[Al Kaseltzer]

can we purchase items before boxing day, than return to store after boxing day to price match (w/ boxing day flyer)?

A Future Shop employee in the FS flyer thread said that there would be no price matches on boxing day, and the whole costomer service counter would be shut down. I'd guess it will be the same at BB

there may not be pricematching, but there is price protection, which is they will honour a lower price within 30 days of your purchase

[finddeals]

Is this good for Quebec?I can no find anything related to Quebec? French version?

[xwar]

I like the FS deals better. The WD 250 GB HDD is amazing!

$99 bucks is alright I guess, but you have to deal with Mail-in rebates and well, its PATA and only 8 mb cache ...

[paramount]

awesome! thanks!

one question: why there are several versions of flyers? aren't they national wide?

[Vinman]

there may not be pricematching, but there is price protection, which is they will honour a lower price within 30 days of your purchase

Is that still valid for the "limited quantities" one-time-only sales?

[bokep]

wow for $30 :evil:

goddamn i am so tempted to buy that game and ruin my life

[Vinman]

I'm a bit confused... the flyer states the Boxing Day Sale starts at 12:01 AM December 25, which is Christmas morning, right?

I'm assuming that's an error and it actually starts at 12:01 AM December 26.

[vtachy]

Great! now to download the scans and do some planning... Thanks to RFD staff for another great job!

[tarek]

[xeodragon]

RedFlagDeals is the best place for everything deals! Thanks guys!

[sentinel]

OMFG this is awesome! Thank you sooo much to Ryan, etc!!! RFD RULES!!!!

That said, definately some good deals, but nothing much to drive me to wait in line.

[finddeals]

Yes, I think so. Nothing could drive me to get up so early.

[VivienM]

I like the FS deals better. The WD 250 GB HDD is amazing!

Isn't it only like $15-20 below the usual prices at NCIX or cheap B&M stores for a 250 gig HD?

When one factors in the MIR, plus the fact that it's PATA... doesn't seem worth getting up for.

FS used to have such good HD deals a few years ago, too...

Same thing with the DVD burners. OEM DVD burners are around $50 every day... this is nothing like last year's $5 CD burners.

[cwalk]

Is that still valid for the "limited quantities" one-time-only sales?

Bump for the above question.

Also, just want to make sure, can anyone confirm that 'price protection' will be honoured on the 26th & 27th at both FS and BB?

If so, tomorrow is my boxing day :)

[dmdsoftware2]

No, it's been said already. The Customer Service desk is closed during the boxing week sale - no price matches. After boxing week you can attempt a price match, but I don't see that being successful after the prices return to normal price.

Ya, those are usually cheap Maxtors. Maxtor drives just suck. Western Digital is so much better.

[CanadaBoy]

Thanks :)

[VivienM]

Ya, those are usually cheap Maxtors. Maxtor drives just suck. Western Digital is so much better.

I have three Maxtors, two boxing day WDs, and random other things. All are fine...

WDs are the typical FS/BB Boxing Day deal usually, though this year BB went to Maxtors...

HD brands are like religion; each brand has its fanatics. I wonder if that 300 gigger @ NCIX is still available...

[jetgrind]

$150 for 5gb creative zen looks good to me

[lewdvig]

FEAR, CoD2 and especially Guild Wars for $30 is pretty sweet.

[Stephen C.]

Thanks RFD!

nice job on the pdf

[pontiac_driver]

the 249.99 psp deal isnt bad
$100 more than the future shop refurb units but you have warrenty and returns

[kool1]

Few good deals there.

Not sure yet what I will try for. Decisions decisions..

[StoneColdWhat]

yeah the site is slow as hell right now, the video cards looks pretty good and a 17" for $200 is a STEAL! Even if it is crappy its good for surfing and stuff. 70 bux for a crappy 600 watt 5.1 system ? Thats got NO chance at all of being at goo system

[neo1973]

Thanks OP!

[PSiBeR]

The 32" Widescreen Flat Panel LCD HDTV looks alright... but 5 per store.
No chance of me waiting in line just for that.. :|
That $89.99 Panasonic phone looks alright too.

[ggweci]

Nikon D50 @ $870 looks pretty good :)

[lip1978]

They'll only do a PM if they still have that item in stock. At least that seems to be the normal PM policy on Boxing Day.

[lithiumli]

hopefully there's more stuff

[bfg_16]

thanks for the heads up!!

[Squeeky]

For the price matching / guarantee the item will have to be in-stock. So if the boxing deals are gone I think you're out of luck.

[deity_me]

Anyone know the specs on those 19" LCD monitors for $299?

[Kinki]

nothing really jumps out at me right now.

[inferno_gn]

Hi there,

Like every year, Boxing Sales keep lagging anything good anymore. It's usually the same set of things like the last year, but just better or faster. There isn't much "new".

Ju Leon...

[maxou723]

RFD you guys rock! Thanks for posting the deals a couple of days before the big one!

[JohnC]

No good deals on DLP's.

[theinfamous]

I like the FS deals better. The WD 250 GB HDD is amazing!


Becareful with WD rebates. I bought a 250GB drive from FS last year and WD stiffed me on the $75 rebate. Said it was mailed and cashed by me when I never even got it! :mad:

[erikr]

Thanks for the scans! :cheesygri

$870 for the D50 is a good deal; definately the cheapest price I've seen for it. I also like the Denon/Infinity speaker and receiver package. It's very similar to what I picked up at last year's sale and it's $100 cheaper.

I'm a little surprised that there aren't more TV's for sale. I'll just have to wait a little longer for a plasma.

Happy shopping everyone!

[go leafs]

It worked for me with the WD boxing day deal last year at best buy! (130 each though for the exact same drive I think). My dad and I each got one!

[hotstartup]

so anything of the fyler is online too? like all the same deals?

[corolla]

I know that I am getting an OEM SATA hard drive this Christmas.

[wwtsang]

so anyone know about the price protection policy?

[Cyrus the Great]

i am planning to buy a kodak V530 digital camera but it's not on sale in the flyers.
could it be on sale in store during boxing day's sale or the items in the flyer are the only items that are going to be on sale?

[can2000]

the PC deal in BB is not as good as that in FS. I think the FS HP $799.99 PC is good deal. any comments?

[VivienM]

i am planning to buy a kodak V530 digital camera but it's not on sale in the flyers.
could it be on sale in store during boxing day's sale or the items in the flyer are the only items that are going to be on sale?

They'll probably do the usual 5% off all cameras...

[smuncky]

geetting some dvd-rs from FS. those maxell look nice for 6$. they come out to 0.24 each. although the price for those phillips dvds are just nuts, i dont trust the media

and then a hdd to go with that, prob the one from BB

thx for the flyyers RFD!

[Sharp]

Doesn't look like I'll be waiting early on boxing day, again. >:(

[EDragon]

also there's that Pioneer DVD burner for $50... think i'll get this or the Benq (FS)

Dear Mahjongmaniac, which one are you going to recommend? Thanks in advance.

[sk8tr]

What is up with that blanc wireless router looking exactly like the gigafast? Is it the same? I want to get one that is like the gigafast since it runs linux. Can anyone confirm what that router really is?

[itsyours]

Dear Mahjongmaniac, which one are you going to recommend? Thanks in advance.
If MJM meant to get the BenQ DVD burner DQ60 for $50 from FS, please stay far.. far away from it. It's a bad burner. Your best bet for this Christmas shopping is the LG GSA-4167 or if you can find one: BenQ DW1640

[nfnx]

hey guys im looking into the
32 inch lcd tv for 969 but dont know if its a good deal... can anyone fill me in if tish is better than the ones at tiger direct and so?



what about the 26 inch???



phillips upconverting dvd player?




canon powershot 500 for 299??

those are 4 things im intersted in but have no idea if they are good for thei value. can someone give me an approx rating of the deal from 1 to 10?
thank you!

I think the Pioneer one is ok.

[skylighter]

Remember, every year, they gave out last minute flyer when you are in line to get into the shop and 1 in 50-100 (depend where you are) chances for giftcards and electronics. I remember last year there is a digital camera. I am there lining up for sure.

[GreenWeenie]

To all those that asked, as a vet of many Boxing Day sales....

1) PM will NOT be possible on the day of purchase. You can't get FS to pricematch BB or any other combination. Customer service will be closed and even if they weren't, the "limited quantities" on the deals removes the possibility of a pricematch.

2) Price protection will not be available after the fact. Again, the limited quantity and door crasher prices are excluded from price protection.

... Our Lowest Price Guarantee does not apply to advertising errors or misprints, special educational prices, restricted offers, mail order offers, rebates, coupons, premiums, free or bonus offers, OEM products, limited or minimum quantity or limited time offers, close-outs, liquidations, clearances, and special financing offers.

[JetSter735180]

so anyone know about the price protection policy?
yes, like I said at the beginning of the thread.....there will be no price protection, Price match, returns or exchanges on the 26th and 27th.

[GreenWeenie]

I'm a bit confused... the flyer states the Boxing Day Sale starts at 12:01 AM December 25, which is Christmas morning, right?

I'm assuming that's an error and it actually starts at 12:01 AM December 26.The Dec 25 isn't a misprint. The internet sale starts at 12:01am EST on Dec 25. The retail store sales start on Dec 26th.

In the past, both Futureshop and BestBuy have screwed people on rebates for items purchased early on Dec 25th. I've bought items at 12:01EST on 12/25 right after they've opened the website. But since BB/FS are on the west coast, the receipt actually printed with 9:01pm PST 12/24. The rebate form says "for purchases on Dec 25 & Dec 26th only", and I've been denied! Hopefully this problem has been resolved... :mad:

[mahjongmaniac]

there may not be pricematching, but there is price protection, which is they will honour a lower price within 30 days of your purchase

that's what every1 else is wondering....

since there is price protection, every1 can technically buy all the stuff today and go back after the 27th at FS/BB to get the price protection (i.e. 100% PM), since there is that 30 day price guarantee if a lower price comes up...

but then again, these boxing day sales have almost everything in limited quantities...

[mahjongmaniac]

No, it's been said already. The Customer Service desk is closed during the boxing week sale - no price matches. After boxing week you can attempt a price match, but I don't see that being successful after the prices return to normal price.

actually, if the item is a boxing WEEK sale item, i don't see why going back for a price protection is not possible...

if it was a boxing day sale item (26th or 27th), then that sale would be over and u wouldn't be able to get PM ...

----------------------------------------------

Hi there,

Like every year, Boxing Sales keep lagging anything good anymore. It's usually the same set of things like the last year, but just better or faster. There isn't much "new".

Ju Leon...

agree... nothing that great...

maybe i'll just get some blank media and that's it....

heck, i'll prbly be shopping at everywhere else except for FS/BB lol

--------------------------------------

Dear Mahjongmaniac, which one are you going to recommend? Thanks in advance.

prbly the Pioneerr.... (what's the model # anyway?)

after the headsup from buck, the Benq is NOT the 1640, it's the DQ60 which isn't worth the $....

EDIT: already mentioned :arrowd:

If MJM meant to get the BenQ DVD burner DQ60 for $50 from FS, please stay far.. far away from it. It's a bad burner. Your best bet for this Christmas shopping is the LG GSA-4167 or if you can find one: BenQ DW1640

2) Price protection will not be available after the fact. Again, the limited quantity and door crasher prices are excluded from price protection.

hm.. if what u say is true, then i guess the "buy today and get price protection after the 27th" won't work...

yeah, that's what i thought too... b/c most of the items are in limited quanitites...

thx4da clarification Greenie!

The Dec 25 isn't a misprint. The internet sale starts at 12:01am EST on Dec 25. The retail store sales start on Dec 26th.

[lightsocket]

says all laptops are on sale, but nothing about apple laptops.

what % do they usually have for sale for laptops?

Also, would the Protection plan I buy from Best Buy be better or just as good as the Applecare?

thanks all!

[wiseblood]

Thanks to the posters who set up the pdf files, great stuff.
I still have an unopened DLink Router and an unopened 80 Gig hardrive from the FutureShop Boxing day sale of 2003. I have to reconsider purchasing something just because it's on sale. Do we need these items, or do we just really want them?
Ah, screw it, it's too hard to turn down a good deal....... :-0

[cannon_fodder]

I know that I am getting an OEM SATA hard drive this Christmas.

Is this something that SATA Claus is bringing?

[mingcourt]

$150 for 5gb creative zen looks good to me

Same here...

Does the "Minimum of 10 per store" thing mean that its unlikely I'll be able to get my hands on one if I'm not the first one in store?

Or can I order on Bestbuy.ca online as soon as the sale starts??

Help is appreciated.

[tetris]

Nothing atleast for me to buy from BB at this boxing day sale. May be what I found a good deal, i already have it.
Tetris

[Pete Jones]

What about the DVDs?

That works out to $20 for 100 decent Maxell DVDs in jewell cases? (assuming you can get that many. Last Boxing day BB was selling MIJ Fuji for $20/50

The only question, is it really worth getting up early for.

--Pete

It has a webID, so it should be available online on the 25th. My decision now is wether I get the 5GB creative or the 20 GB Toshiba, or the 20GB Creative from FS. Any suggestions?

Right now BB is showing OOS online. I guess zero qualifies as a 'limited quantity'.

Do you know what process of buying through BestBuy is like?

How many pages of information msut I fill out when placing an order? (I really want this mp3 player, so I gotta prepare :))

Is it likely that this is such a hot item that I will lose it while placing my order (such as putting in c/c number or something)

[Johnny Powel]

Does anyone have any info on this MP3 Player ? Page 2 of the Flyer states it is an MPIO but it is not ?

create an account. in the account you can save your shipping info, cc info, billing address. so its just a matter of pushing the "next" button 5-6 times to have your order placed

Or is there better deal on dvd recorders

I'm interested in the Samsung recorder, myself.

[smuncky]

isnt OEM also 1year?

[mahjongmaniac]

isnt OEM also 1year?

no... OEM is at LEAST 1 yr...

Seagate - 5 yrs
Maxtor - 3yrs
WD - 3yrs? (not sure as i haven't bought an OEM WD b4...)

[Mr. Bean]

Well Best Buys websites been down since last night.

I hope they get this fixed real soon! I can't even browse to look for the items I want to buy.

It's up again, and it's got the boxing day flyers for each province now

[jamewoong]

But between MAXTOR and WESTERN, which one is better, as the quality...?

Before I've heard from people saying that MAXTOR make dead HD and Western the the people's choice. Nowadays, it is the opposite... It that right?

Hope I'll won't be late to get that!!!! :D It will be better if there's a SEAGATE... :(

[blackwind]

Any thoughts on the video cards?

my sister will be attending university next year...and is looking to buy a laptop. Do u think she should purchase it now or would it be best to wait until summer? Will she get a better laptop and a better deal than? She was thinking of purchasing the HP dv4270 ($1299 on boxing day)

my sister will be attending university next year...and is looking to buy a laptop. Do u think she should purchase it now or would it be best to wait until summer? Will she get a better laptop and a better deal than? She was thinking of purchasing the HP dv4270 ($1299 on boxing day)

http://www.bestbuy.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=0926INGFS10067864&catid=20354

Thanks

Wait on it... FS just had the toshiba satellite M70-SR3 for 1299 with almost identical specs (except only 512mb ram - the extra 512mb would cost about $65). This is good deal, but not amazing, and in 8 months you'll definitely get more for $1300.

The M70-SR3 will be selling for $1099 at Staples on Boxing Day. Take at look at the flyer Page 7.

Does anybody know if the ATI card on sale for $69 is any good - the ATI RADEON 9600SE?

[iceman4123ca]

Saw the flyer in the Toronto Star today and they had replaced the LCD TV with a DLP. Anyone know if they are going to use the LCD as a Door Crasher or did they just change their mind. I was thinking of picking one up on Monday.

[smuncky]

no... OEM is at LEAST 1 yr...

Seagate - 5 yrs
Maxtor - 3yrs
WD - 3yrs? (not sure as i haven't bought an OEM WD b4...)


thats wierd, cuz on the Canada comp website they said 1 year warranty

LINK (http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=ShowProduct&cmd=pd&pid=006046&cid=HD.443)

[mahjongmaniac]

I hope they're just hiding stock.

hopefully yes...

else FS/BB would be OOS on many limited quanitity items b4 any1 can get their hands on'em lol....

i'd guess that's the retailer's warranty...

maxtor's mfr warranty is 3 yrs for OEM....

[PolitiChat]

Page 9
Philips 42PF7320 HDTV Plasma
$1000 off = $2,499

I was at Queensway to see what the TV looks like but they did not have any in stock. They did not know how many they will get in. It goes 200 chain wide.

I noticed that the BB store cost price is $2,182.77
So they are still making over $300 on the unit.

Leads me to believe that the regular price is a high "stupid price". Then they wonder why noone is buying the things.

Nothing really makes me want to wait in line for 6 hours!

Even the HDs i can get at CC for just about $20 more.

I know the dual-layer RW standard hasn't been finalized yet, but is there any chance the Pioneer DVR 610B will be able to support it with a firmware update in the future? I'm considering getting this burner, even though I already have one. any thoughts?

TO DIGITAL DOLPHIN:

any comment on how good this burner is? my google search came up with little worthwhile info.

[optimum]

gonna pick up the dvd burner I guess

Does anybody know if the ATI card on sale for $69 is any good - the ATI RADEON 9600SE?

Anyone have any thoughts - is this a good deal for a basic video card?

[jaigandhi5]

dont get the 9600SE

SE=slower
PRO=faster
XT=FASTEST

an fx5600 is faster than the 9600se and i got my FX5600 TWO years ago for $80

u can get a 9600PRO on rfd for $70-90$ possibly even cheaper which is faster than the 9600SE

[itsme]

i'd guess that's the retailer's warranty...

maxtor's mfr warranty is 3 yrs for OEM.... there's a lot of misinformation about oem warrenties,the 3 year mfr warrenties only apply to the original buyer,for instance a Dell etc,buys a ton of drives and resells to resellers who in turn sell to other resellers like canada computers etc. http://www.maxtor.com/portal/site/Maxtor/menuitem.a14629af82eff9461400585760b46068/?channelpath=/en_us/Support/Warranty%20Services/Original%20Equipment%20Manufacturer%20Warranty

yah hopefully they restock...but when...I can't sit here all night hoping that they might restock at some point.

[Mr.Manic]

All I want to do is buy a cell phone, I don't think thats too much to ask for. But apparently bestbuy only wants to tease me with it, not actually sell it to me.

[Montague]

yah hopefully they restock...but when...I can't sit here all night hoping that they might restock at some point.
My best guess is that they are "holding" back some inventory so they will have enough for the entire period of the sale (there were *some* restocks last year).

Course it may just be wishfull thinking on my part.

The ATI AIW 9800 Pro is the better graphics card overall. The AIW 2006 may have an updated remote control and FM radio (not sure) but they will both do the job of TV recording.

[spender]

This is a little over the top.

I don't blame Best Buy, but the site is obviously just too busy. Those who are getting through are quite lucky.

I've been trying to check out since 10 p.m. MST, I can't believe it's over an hour and a half later now. I've never seen any e-commerce website this busy.

ALSO, I'm running 4 browsers, I just want that TV. None are getting any traction. What gives? C'mon BB servers!

[Infamous1]

I waited over 45 mins to check out for Call of Duty 2. They had over 25 when i checked out and by the time it went through, they have no more and i lose. Thanks for coming out. :mad:

My anger is just growing every minute. 2 hours and 8 minutes ago I had the items in my cart. So far the only progess has been to remove an item that has since gone out of stock. Now I can't even login at all. Earlier I got to step 3 before being knocked back to step 2. Then I was entirely unable to do anything, and then I was stuck getting vbscript errors. Now I'm back to being stuck at the login screen. I HATE BestBuy! Damnit, I just want a cell phone!

The AIW 2006 is a bad bad deal. It's a very slow card. Get the AIW 9800 pro instead. The best solution is to get an used 9800pro and a Hauppauge card IMO.
Someone selling used AIW 9800pro for $150 in BST forum too.

I bought this benq keyboard/mouse combo at last year's boxing day at Futureshop. The keyboard is great! I think I'm still using the same batteries that originally came with the keyboard. But the mouse is terrible. This thing eats the batteries. Week after week, I'd had to change them.

No, never heard of them and can't find their website. But the $150 price is without any MIRs so that's one thing its got goin' for it.

I got on at 12:00:30 (i was watching cable pulse for the timing...)

saw that there was 9, added, had some problems, refreshed the zen page, saw 4 and then tried placing an order again... it eventually went through (to my surprise, i got the email 30 minutes later)

in my order status, it says "shippable"... any idea what that means?

[rubberband]

Call of Duty is restocked! 140 left - just ordered mine. :cheesygri

futureshop items show what date the sale ends, but best buy doesn't. I want to buy the HP laser jet 1020 printer

I also scored two of the 4 they had at 11:20pm last night, late gifts for my nieces. I was watching TV and refresh from 8pm.

[optimum]

my stuff is shipped :)

[excel]

what time do they usualy restock?

[mylescloutier]

:D Waited in line for about an hour. Didn't win though. First prize $500, second prize $45. Gave everyone free gum and a full sized chocolate bar.

I picked up a 512MB Kingston Data Traveller, 4 CDs for $24 and a Creative Webcam Live! Person I was with picked up a Samsung 19" LCD and a 160GB acomdata external HD.

Me is a happy boy!

[bodobodo]

I'm not sure if anyone cares about this but I'll mention it in case. I picked up a 20 pack of the Maxell CD-Rs with cases in store for $4.99. My assumption all along had been that these would be Ritek discs since that's what Maxell has tended to use in their spindles. The ones that I got, however, were Prodisc media, code 97m32s19f.

Wow, that's a surprise! I've never heard of Maxell using Prodisc for their CD-Rs. Maxell uses alot of OEMs I guess, my old 16X Maxells are even Daxon!

[MARINE BETTA]

anyone know if they will be stocking up on these?

I went in store about 2 hours after store opened, no lineups!

Got myself the 79$ microwave and the Audigy 2 value card. Went back home and ordered Stargate SG1 Season 1 and 2 online.

All in all, good day :lol: thanks RFD Boxing Deal Thread and Ryan+Derek

This online Door Crasher wasn't orderable on Xmas day due to the USB adapter showing out of stock.

But they have fixed the system and you can get it now (289 available at this time).

Caution: web page says limit 2 per household but the rebate form (http://www.bestbuy.ca/Rebate/pdfs/Dec_20_05_BlancRouter110BBYEngFre.pdf) says 1 per household.

Do not order this item:

I got a USB adapter instead... and Best Buy customer service sucks... they expect me to line up to return this and then wait 5-7 business days for a replacement.....

[technut]

BestBuy screwed up royally when fulfilling orders for the Blanc products. For each router you ordered you'll probably get a USB adapter and vice versa.

ah f***!

rec'vd it(adaptor) in the mail yesterday, thought that the router was OOS...

but it turned out that the pkging slip said the router was supposed to be shipped except they shipped me an adaptor? wtf? :mad:

BB royally screwed up on these orders...

don't even know how the hell the rebates gonna go thru... :|

[smalltownfart]

I have the same problem, ordered a router and got a USB wireless adapter instead.

I can't find the rebate form on their website now, can someone post a link to the PDF (the rebate for 1 single router) ?

Does anyone know when the rebates expire? I just might return this thing (assuming I can) instead of dealing with all this hassle.

[ttt]

received my order today.
