who knows, maybe their business model involves using the float on huge amounts of rebates for 3 1/2 months to invest in something (commercial paper?) and that’s where the profit is made.

I didn’t see any competing product like this for sale at CRE so I hope it’s o.k. to post. The price is $76.99, but they send you a check for that amount so it’s free. Just make sure to follow their rebate instructions to the letter and you will get your rebate check in about 14 weeks.
Disclaimer- I just saw this and ordered myself so I can’t give you a review on how good the product is. I have ordered from CyberRebate before and they are legit.

I see this one brought up a bunch of questions. As long as you follow the directions on the site you will get your refund. You really don’t need to do much to keep track of this. Print the order receipt out and you can go to the site, open up your account and see all of your order/rebate progress. It’s an easy way to get frequent flyer miles and get stuff for free.
Well enough out of me. Head to the site below for detail from other users.

I saw a previous post about this site (might have been Houserookie, if not, sorry) and ordered something. At the CyberRebate site they explain that they offer the 100% rebate on only a small portion of their product line. The company hopes you will also buy some of the thousands of other items. Not a scam, simply a unique allocation of advertising dollars.

I’ll bet they make their money compiling mailing lists. Hard costs for tape set, (depending on the number produced) is relatively small compaired to the revenue that can be generated selling lists. Nothing wrong with that, just be prepared to receive tons of promotional mail and spam.

Let me get this straight , im to send them roughly $77 , and wait 3 1/2 months to get a rebate check ?
Sorry , im not that trusting to hope someone sends me my money back.
Where exaclty does this company make their money , the fact that most people wont follow the rebate instructions to the letter, then wont get their money ?
And since most people forget , or dont want to waste their time to follow up trying to get their money?
Im curious as to why a person would have to wait 3 1/2
months to get a rebate? Actually , it looks like it would be a little bit longer, thats 3 1/2 months from the time they recieve your rebate submission.
Maybe I am abnormal, I have a difficult time tracking and following things from 4 months ago. Especially rebates. I would rather go for the programs that only charge you shipping charges and they send the product free. But thats my opinion.

Bass,
I have used their service before and did recieve my rebate check as promised. However, it did take the full 3 1/2 months to get the money.
I would not be so concerned about getting the money, but more concerned at why it took so longf.
