Here's the info about the rebate ...
See post #170 of this thread:
Kill Bill 1 & 2 BLU-RAY 9/9/08
... seems like BHVE may have had a change of heart about providing the rebate, but it may not be $10 each, and there is no confirmation of anyone actually receiving the rebate yet.

I bought the National Treasure 2-pack and Buena Vista honored my National Treasure rebate. Not sure why they would reject the Kill Bill 2-pack for rebates, unless people weren't mailing both rebates seperately like the instructions specify.
Anyways, I bought the Kill Bill DVDs earlier this week with the Best Buy promo in hopes that the Blu-rays would go on sale some day. That some day came sooner that I thought.

So, the question would be did the National Treasure Blu-rays in the bundle come with the rebate forms?

I don't think there was a form with the National Treasure Blu-ray in the bundle. I called Buena Vista to request one and got it in a few days. The rebate request was sent with my Amazon packing slip showing the bundle and they accepted it.

Thanks for the info OP. Ordered the Kill Bill DVD's for in-store pickup. Didn't think about adding the gift card to my cart, just thought they'd give me that at the store automatically. Whoops! Talked to customer service though and they're just crediting $10 back to my credit card so it all worked out.

That's exactly what will happen if you try to be shifty and return one of these Kill Bill DVD's. You will suddenly get charged $10 for the free gift card. This is already an awesome deal, so I don't recommend anyone trying to be shifty or it will come back to bite you in the a$$...

I was worried when on Monday it said they were sold out online and that Best Buy was just "fixing the problem." I saw they were online today and tried it, but it didn't work. Someone on here said they called in and it worked, so I tried it and it DID. I agree don't get shady, this is a great deal. Basically 2 DVD's for $2!

Ordered on the phone today then contacted BVHE by email to get my blu ray rebate forms and then ordered the blu rays from amazon this afternoon.
For about $12.00 after rebates for two blu rays and two standard dvd's pretty good deal.

I picked my dvds up yesterday with no problems. Both of my gift cards say shipped, but tracking doesn't work. Anyone get theirs yet? What service does it ship?

Gold Box special TODAY only for KB1 & KB2 bundle for $27.95. Supposedly you have to call and get the rebate forms or follow some other informal procedure.........no one has confirmed receiving the Blu-Ray Upgrade rebates yet.

*PROBLEM WITH THIS OFFER !!!!*
i did exactly what it was asked to do ... select 2 movies then scroll down to the GC and select it for free ... i did this but the total came out to 22.99
i selected kill bill 1 & 2 and then it DID change the price to 6 bucks a movie ... BUT it still said 22.99 not 12.99
i called the customer support line and they told me to just go ahead and place the order and it would change the amount ... well it didnt lol
i ended up having to call them again to change it BUT in the process i was transffered to the wrong department, hung up on, transferred to pure silence, until finally i got help ... im waiting for the corrected amount to be emailed to me

Well, called CS twice. The first time was painless and they even shipped free!
The second time they would not combine the offers REGARDLESS that I told them I went to the web page, followed the instructions and the GC was still 10.00. Transferred to their CSR's that handle problmes. They eventually let me have it for exactly what was on the web page. A big YMMV, but really they don't have any legs to stand on since you follow the instructions on THEIR WEBPAGE and it doesn't work.
Got Kill Bill1,2 & Miracles & Gangs of NY.
I'm a little confused about the BR deal. Supposedly the package from Amazon is NOT included in the rebate. Also is the rebate $10 per movie?

If it's still on the website ask for a CS rep. They really have no legs to stand on since if you go to the fee GC page and select two of the DVDs included, they end up as 6.00 each but the GC is still 10.00. just tell them you are following THEIR INSTRUCTIONS and it doesn't work!
