I recently was asked about a deal at Provantage.com. It appears there was a pricing mistake and most of their HP LaserJet printers had a price tag with the rebate already taken off. The customer could then submit the original rebate and get a deal of the century (nearly free after rebate). So are these rebates valid? Has anyone received a rebate back from HP in a timely manner? Most people I know don’t mess with the rebates, but some go through the fun process of getting the UPC labels, forms, and praying that HP receives the rebate and processes it immediately. Just a note to those individuals seeking to find that HP LaserJet “free” after rebate, it hasn’t happened yet, and probably won’t anytime soon. Prices are, however, falling quickly, so cross your fingers.
