Receipt printed out at $259.99 before tax no mention of discounts, instant savings or sales price on receipt itself.

I had no coupons or trade-in at time of purchase.

Should be good for rebate.

LOL so naive!

Why is he naive? Just curious.

Just don't use the business rebate offer. Use the one that is posted by member called divia. That one has not mention of "instant savings." That one should fly. However, it is still YMMV at this time. I am in though.

"Offer good on purchases made between June 29, 2008 and Aug 02, 2008 of HP printers (LaserJet M1319f, M1522nf, M2727nf) with qualifying reseller ads. Products purchased before or after these dates are not eligible for this offer. Purchase date is determined by invoice or receipt date. This offer may NOT be combined with any other HP national offers unless specified by other programs.

This is not advertised as $60 AR so if they deny the rebate (which they may according to similar deals) you will have NO chance in getting that $200 as they are following the terms and conditions.

This deal is a gamble. People buying this printer are only hoping they will pay out the rebate. The terms and conditions CLEARLY state that for the rebate to be valid it must be advertised in the specific retailer AD, which it is not here hence the rebate is NOT valid for this deal. Like I said, its a gamble and if they deny it you LOSE. Have fun.

Most rebates on SD or FW are a gamble. However, many people, including myself, had called the HP rebate center and asked specific questions about this(including question about "reseller ads". More than one rebate staff had confirmed that rebates will fly with OD purchase, regardless whether they advertise it or not. Most people had their conversations documented, like myself. HP is very careful about conversations the have with customers. Hence, they document them. Withat being said, to each his own. I already bought mine. Good luck to everyone! When in doubt, call HP rebate center yourself and have the conversation documented.

Onion, glad to see you again here, how many have you purchased so far? Hehe, just let you guys know HP is pretty lenient to their customers on rebates, of course, there is always BBB/AG/etc. to file complaints, however, the part of "retalier's ads" is of debate though. Then, how they will verify each and every retalier's ads when they process it? No, they will not.

I also called HP (Compaq) rebate line - they told me this would qualify - and they do log your name and address along with the fact they pre-approved your rebate.

Just picked one up - looks okay. The toner can be refilled - although since it's chipped your printer display will continue to have the "low on toner" alert.

Edit: And the CSR was kind enough to allow me to use the $20 off coupon even though it excluded tech items.

Thank you OP & OD CSR!

I call them and they said 'No'. This is only for Some special stores.

sixpackdate said:OK, three yesses and one no. Any other "no"s out there?

What did they tell you when you called them?

sixpackdate said:I'm one of the yes's, see above.

I'm in no rush to open it up and submit, so I'll just chill a couple of day's and check the boards.

I called, they said yes. I called back and confirmed that they had logged the earlier call along with the info, so I feel pretty confident to go ahead and send in the UPC.

If this was TigerDirect or some of the other companies I'd probably opt out, but HP and Staples have always been very reliable for me.

I called HP, and was told the rebates is good for Office Depot.

Good point sunfish.

I asked the csr to read it over and if there is any language which would prevent the rebate from being honored, tell me now or forever hold your peace. It was too expensive and that the reabte made it afordable for me, and that there are laser AIO's popping up here and there for under 100 bucks. He put me on hold and came back and said it's ok.

I do not think I'll call back, and will send it in with the documentation I have.
