Got all my rebates. 13 $10 Post cards and 10 $5 post cards for the Star Trek movies. That was one thick stack of MIRs. Couldn't they save money including all those in one check per offer ? Oh wait, no, they dont want to. Cos they expect some to be lost in mail and some not to be cashed. Anyways...

So, GET THIS..
After buying FOUR of the WB SE DVDs when all this madness started, yesterday I get a total of FOUR postcards. Three of them are for $10 (the correct amount) and one is for $7 (the incorrect amount).
So, I say to myself...
"Self, two questions. One - is $3 really worth the aggrivation of dealing with these suddenly incompetent fools again? Two - why are you talking to yourself?"
In the end, I said "Fuck it! $3 is $3, bitch. Hell, that's a quarter of a tank of gas right there!"
So I called them.
I tried to break it down for them as simply as possible and when he started saying "Do you have a copy of the rebate slip?", I knew where it was going. I told him "Dude, when I sent the rebates in THE FIRST TIME, the rebate form was preprinted with all four discs on the SAME FORM. After the first fiasco where you guys gave the consumers the WRONG ADDRESS to send 'em to, I faxed 'em in again. I am NOT wasting more $$$ faxing this to you again." I then followed it up with the "I've never had problems with you guys before" spiel..
Then..."Well, we thank you for being a valued customer...blah, blah, blah....a $10 rebate will be mailed in 4-6 weeks. Please do not cash the check for $7."
