    Hi,
    I bought a V2405US from Office Depot for $729.99 ($550 after rebates). I'm an international student from Bulgaria and I've never sent rebates before. The process is not very easy and I'm afraid I will make a mistake. Could you give me some guidelines in case you have purchased the same notebook?

    There is one $30 mail-in-rebate and one for $150 wich has to be postmarked by 01/14/06 and and received by 01/21/06. They both require the original UPC(or copy) from item.

    I'm not sure which one is the UPC label, because there are several labels on both sides of the box. How do you remove it from the box without damaging it? Also, on the rebate receipt they ask for "original upc(and)serial nuber barcode label(s). What do you put there?

    I would really appreciate it if you can help me,
    Thanks

    Make copies of everything i.e. the recepit, UPC code, rebate forms, etc. before sending it off. If it is a large rebate, I usually send it certified mail. They have to sign for it so they can't claim they didn't get it.
