Ataxia is the thing with feathers.

Rebates via Amazon.com

Thinking about buying something on amazon.com that has a rebate associated with it?

Don’t buy it and think you’re going to get the rebate.

I’ve been in customer support runaround for about 2 weeks because they’ve grossly botched even the process of providing the correct mail-in rebate form for the MacBook Pro I bought from them.

They now have 48 hours before I start making complaints to the Federal Trade Commission (interstate commerce, woo!) and the Attorney General’s office.

UPDATE: Someone at Amazon finally got their head out of their butt and helped me out. My rebate is now submitted and “scheduled for final processing”. So that’s promising.

I love it when you write letters to the government!
