S&W rebate: How long does it take?

[timeout]

I just got a person on the line @ 866-963-7933 (only took 3 tries). They asked for my last name and zip code. I gave that to her and she pulled up my info. She proceeded to tell me that my check had been printed, and that I should be receiving it soon. We shall see. Reminds me of the old, old story, "the check is in the mail".

Finally received mine today... 13 weeks later.

I filled mine out online some time ago and took a picture of the receipt and attached it to the form. It was about 2 months ago and I just got a letter from them last week stating they did not have a copy of the receipt and I had to show proof within a certain time to get the check. SCREW IT.........I threw the letter in the garbage and never gave it another thought.

The $75 rebate offer pushed me over the edge and I purchased an M&P Shield. I submitted the rebate online a few weeks ago and received email confirmation from Smith. Just wondering who else participated in this rebate and how long did the check take to arrive.

Not anxious about the money. Just curious.

Well now it’s October. According to their rebate website, there is no record of my rebate submission. After spending my entire lunch hour (X3) on hold trying to reach Smith’s rebate team and then calling their main phone number just to be redirected back into the rebate line bottomless pit, I am now officially pissed at Smith and Wesson. I sold the gun and bought a Ruger. Goodbye Smith & Wesson.

Hope your luck is better than mine! Fell for the Remington rebate on 700's a couple years back. After numerous call and 9 months of wait time They finally told me the rebate was sent several months earlier and they had no way to confirm if it arrived or was cashed. I ask how many rebates were sent as I had sent 4 forms at 2 different times they were speechless! Never saw a dime. The products that companies offer arrive usually and in a more timely manner. Good luck!
