There are two real reasons companies like rebates:

1. Only 47% of rebates are applied for so the manufacturer can advertise
what appears to be a lower cost but only cost-sensitive consumers will
bother to submit the rebate.

2. Once the UPC code is removed the product is non-returnable. This is a
very big issue on technology products where the return is often done
because the consumer won't make an attempt to figure out how to use the
product properly.


I thought there were some rebate companies that would go to a company and
say they will do rebates on a product and keep the differance in money if
there was any.
They usually made out becuse lots of people do not turn in the rebates.
