DS & FYE Question
Hey guys,
I am in the market for a Nintendo DS.
Currently FYE is running the DS for 139.99 with a 30 dollar mail in rebate
A few questions for everyone
-How is FYE with return policy? I work at best buy and buy EVERYTHING over 50 bucks from best buy.. and im afraid to purchase something from FYE in case it fails on me or whatever..
which brings me to
-Does FYE have any type of service plan?
and number three
-Anyone have any problems with FYE's mail in rebates? Will I see the money?
Thanks

DVD Talk Gold Edition
Are you sure it's $139? I was sure retail on the DS Lite is $129.99 everywhere unless they have something packed with it.
As for the rebates I've done a couple of their DVD rebates and it took 4-6 weeks to get them back.

FYE just recently started a Product Replacement Program. Basically, you're covered for two years, and if something goes wrong (within plan restrictions of course), you send your unit in and get a gift card to FYE for the full amount you paid for the item. The upside to that is you don't have to screw around with repairs or refurbished units, and you can spend the gift card on anything, you're not restricted to getting another unit. So, if your DS craps out within that two years and Nintendo has introduced an umpteenth version of it by then, you could pick up that new model and not have lost any of your inital investment. Not a bad deal, really.
