Is season 2 really popular? FYE had none left (but plently of season 1 and some season 3). And when I went to CC to try and PM, they didn't have season 2 either.

Here's my experience and I think there is (or was) an online version of the rebate and here's why...
Friday I went to a FYE store and got season 2, they said no rebate existed for seasons 1-3.
Saturday I found a season 3 at a local Warehouse. The warehouse guy asked if I wanted the rebate. I said sure. Only problem.... they didn't have any more. So the manager went off to PRINT up more. He had problems and was unable to print the form so they just reduced the price to $9.99 and refunded me the $5.xx. Cool, that's the way to handle the situation!!! Good job warehouse guys I delt with!
After knowing there is a rebate for at least one of the TWE stores, I called back the FYE I was at on friday. They still stick to the claim that there's no rebate form.
So, since the store manager was going to print up a copy of the rebate I can only assume they believe that will be an acceptable rebate form to submit. One rebate down, one to go...

email link of rebate form works!
I bought my copies at an FYE store. There were no rebate forms available but the cashier told me I shouldn't have a problem using a printed copy from the link provided early on in this thread. I figured it was worth the 37-cent postage to try and get $15 back. I mailed it out on June 15. Lo-and-behold, I just now received email confirmation that my submissions were accepted. Three $5 email confirmations were sent to me.
So for those of you wondering, a photocopy did work for me. Good luck to the rest of you.

I don't want to turn this into a 'mine were approved too' thread, but since there were some concerns that purchases at most FYEs might not be approved, I thought this info might be worthwhile.
Mine were approved too.
I purchased one set at an FYE that told me there were no rebates and one set at a Strawberries that did advertise the rebates. I got two rebate forms from Strawberries and sent them in. Both rebates are approved at rebateshq.

I bought S.3 at FYE and printed out the scanned rebate form in one of these threads and sent it in. I received the confirmation e-mail from Transworld Entertainment and when checking the status, it says:
Your rebate is valid and is in the final stages of processing. You should receive your rebate per the terms and conditions listed on the coupon.
I will post again if I actually receive the check.

If anyone is interested, I ended up with an extra Season 2 out of this deal (no rebate though).
I'll sell it at my cost ($16.08 inc. tax) plus shipping. Otherwise, I am going to return it to the store.

how do you guys get it to 3x5?? (rebate form)
When I play around with it in paint, resize it, the quality is piss poor when it prints out.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Common guys. This is a dead deal and tons of people are going to be trying to access this (or at least the slow ones like me lol). Either Edit it as "dead" or leave it be. I am happy you got your rebate, but please try to keep the current deals on the front page.
With that said, I got my rebates a few weeks ago on the three seasons. Best deal I've seen.

Tay, there was a rather lengthy debate in this thread regarding the validity of using a printed rebate form and an FYE receipt. I was confirming that I used this method and received my rebate, so others should expect the same.
However, I do agree that the thread title should be modified to indicate a dead deal.
