Belkin F5D7230-4 Wireless-G Broadband Router is advertised as
$69.98 - $20 instant savings - $30 easy rebate = $19.94

Staples SKU : 504004

This offer may be regional. Confirmed in Philly area weekly ads.

There is another $20 rebate for this router on rebateshq.com valid b/w 8/1/04 - 6/1/05
$20 rebate link on rebateshq

$30 easy rebate is not available on stapleseasyrebates.com yet. However I see a $20 rebate on stapleseasyrebates.com
for this router valid b/w 11/7/04 - 11/27/04. So, I am not sure if Staples will put out another $10 rebate making a $30 rebate from Staples. Or they will put out a $30 rebate in addition to this $20 rebate.

In the end, this definitely looks like atleast FAR if not a money making deal.

Per 'DerProfi' (I think he is right) -
Be careful with that $20 rebate if you've purchased any Belkin networking gear from Staples since August, because it's likely you've used the rebate already. It's one rebate per customer from 8/04 to 6/05 and includes just about everything: F5D7011, F5D7001, F5D7010, F5D7000, F5D7050, F5D6020, F5D6001, F5D6050, F5D5000, F5D5010, F5D5050, F5D5131-5, F5D5131-8, F5D4070, F5D4050, F5D7231-4, F5D7230-4, F1UP0001, F5D7130, F5D6231-4, F5D6130, F5D5231-4.

Dealfan said:Will they honor both of them? (RebateHQ and easy rebate)
For RebateHQ, only for participating retailers. Are you sure that Staples in? If not, how can you say it is defintely FAR?

Staples does not require UPC. The rebateshq rebate requires orig UPC and its a Manufacturer rebate.
The same rebate for a wireless B router from Staples (which I bought a month ago) is valid for me on rebateshq.

good find OP

emanuel said:If we buy tonight, don't we save even more since they will give 110% of the difference between the price tonight ($69.99) and the price tomorrow ($49.99)???

The y do not give a 110% price guarantee against themselves I think.

for easy rebate, how many can we submit for one address?

It would be great if it's FAR.
