Does anyone have any information or advice on how to obtain the $20 rebate offered with the Dick Van Dyke DVD sets, if the purchase was made from an online merchant? The mail-in rebate forms included in the two box sets indicate that "original sales receipts" must be supplied, but of course, there is no such receipt for an online purchase.
I have e-mailed the contact address at the dvdondvd.com web site, twice now in the past three weeks, but have received no reply.
Thanks.

Hi,
You should be able to use the confirmation e-mail from your etailer as your "receipt".
Also, the dvdondvd.com website can't help you here. They didn't put these out (despite what they want you to believe). You will need to contact Image directly via their website www.image-entertainment.com.
From what other posters have said, they're very good at responding.
Good luck.

I don't know why you say this, Kipp.
I just used the "Invoice" I received with my Van Dyke package.
Every e-tailer gives some type of "invoice" with the info required by Image for the rebates to be valid.
Didn't you get ANY paperwork with your e-purchase of these sets?

David,
In some shipments, the paperwork included is nothing more than a packing list (vs. a sales receipt).
However, I have re-examined what I received from Deep Discount DVD with the Dick Van Dyke sets, and I believe it should indeed serve as a receipt.
Thanks to all who responded.

Travis, that was the worst joke I've ever heard.
On topic, I don't think that one would be able to use the confirmation e-mail from an online retailer because someone could conceivably order the titles from Amazon (or another e-tailer), print out the confirmation e-mail, and then proceed to cancel their online order.
On the other hand, the packing slip, which DDD includes with their items, details the price and date of order, so that should be acceptable.

REBATE UPDATES, anyone??
Anybody else get their $20 back?
I have not. Three months and counting. (And I did not use the Best Buy special offer.)

For those of you actually getting rebates from these sorry ass scumbags, good for you, but if you haven't, I wouldn't hold my breath.

I bought both seasons shortly after release. I bought from a B & M store. Sent the rebate form in right away. Have heard/received nothing. Zip. Nada.

I sent in my rebate on November 3 and still have not received it. I also called Image a couple of weeks ago and was told the checks were going to be mailed the following week. Doesn't look like that happened.
