Rebate? Will this product get rebates like all of the other Apple computers? I'm waiting to purchase until a rebate appears, so an answer would be great. :)

I just went through the Rebate website and it took my info. Ask me in 8-10 weeks ifI actually get a check. I've been burned too many times on Frys rebates...

Yes, I tried several times to download the rebate...I entered all the detail requested. I am still unable to download the rebate for the 150 dollars. How long did it take before you received your rebate?

My experience has been similar to Jason's... I bought an iBook G4 off of Amazon a few years back, and I *did* get the $100 rebate.Took like 8 weeks, IIRC.

Thats frys, amazons stuff always comes for me. I got mine a good while ago, was less than 8 weeks for sure. And I didn't have to mail anything or damage my box, it was all automated.

Followup on March 1, 2013: Finally received the AMEX $20 Reward Card in the mail. Original rebate submission was in July 2012! At least ASUS came through in the end. I don't know if Amazon put any pressure on them to honor their rebate commitments, but it was good to finally receive the rebate I qualified for when I purchased the monitor on Amazon in June 2012. Perhaps things DO come to those who wait.... Just wish it hadn't taken so long.

I'm wondering if there's a rebate available if I order this now? Anyone know? I see no mention of it in the product description here at Amazon.

The units are selling fast. My local Apple store was completely sold out when I went to get one. They said they received a dozen or so in and were all sold in a day or two. They told me to check back soon as they receive new shipments daily. I went back a few days latter and they had dozens of them on the shelf.

MauraSorry, no. I haven't had any replies... and I haven't purchased it yet. May be I will visit the Apple store to ask one of the Geniuses behind the counter.

I have a related arrrrgh. Was about to pull the trigger last night on the LN46a550 because of the $200 Samusung rebate. Got tied up and this morning it is gone? Is it typical for a rebate to come and go so quickly? As I recall, it was valid through end of October ?

Hello Susana, Thanks for your interest! We are only reselling this used item, so we are not 100% sure about the answer to this question. However, Apple should know, so we recommend you contact them directly about this. Have a great day!

Recieved my MBP 17" today. Ordered May 8th, received June 8th. Looks like Amazon has enough to fill backorders since the status of the MBP is that it ships within 24 hours. Hopefully it lasts for anyone who wants one. Loving mine so far (it does get a bit warm...)

I bought a 27" model in late December with the issue. I returned it to the Apple Store in Seattle and requested a replaecement, but also requested to test it in the store before hauling the beast home. iMac no. 2 was also afflicted. They pulled a third one from the stock room; same issue. All three were also different production batches (week 42, 45 and 49 machines). I requested a full refund, which was granted. I'm now waiting until the next iMac revision (presumably next fall) before giving the iMac another chance.

Thanks Stitch... the address didn't come out but I found it anyhow. First click on the "Used and New" link, then add Amazon's item to your cart, then click on the item link through your cart. The rebate is listed. E.A. - I'm surprised they even told you they'd email it. The rep that responded to my email basically told me go to h---.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, when I saw the rebate had gone I took them out of my cart and re-added them to try to get it back, but it didn't work. Is there any way to get it back?

For Apple to provide warranty as "new" product, must be brand new from an authorized apple reseller and you must provide them copy of the invoice that it was a new apple. I had to go through a lot of paperwork....phonecall....& Help Desk to get this pulled off.

I sent my laptop to the Apple Store because of the video concerns and that's why it was served for that exact reason. So as far as I'm concerned, my video card issue has been addressed directly by Apple and my system has a three-month warranty directly from Apple. Thanks.

Did you use the official Amazon rebate form or did you use some other, such as Newegg.com?I haven't received my rebate yet but I got an email from Canon with a link to my status and it says that my rebate is being processed and they expect to mail a check sometime in May. I haven't heard of anyone else being rejected due to Amazon not being a Canon dealer, or for any other reason.

I didn't have any problems receiving my rebate. In fact, the rebate for this was processed faster than a rebate I had sent out for a different company (OCZ). I received both in the end but the OCZ was submitted several weeks earlier.

I contacted them aswell and they told me they would Contact me within 48 hours and they didn't. At first they told me to try the rebate then they told me not to and to wait. I don't like having $150 in limbo. Also now they changed the rebate information on the link page for the rebate to say July 3, 2006 even though the rebate expires June 3, 2006.

I gave up on Amazon. Canceled my order (Preordered Feb 17th). I stopped by the local Apple store and picked one up that they had in stock. It sucks that i had to pay tax, but at least now i have it. I'm guessing Apple is to blame on this mess. It's seems that they're only selling them directly, and denying them to other stores like Amazon. :-/
