Re:Information gathering? (Score 1)

Uh...yeah. Companies that offer rebates are in fact purchasing your personal information. When you respond to a rebate, you are making a choice to sell that information for the price of the rebate.

I decided long ago to either accept the product at the pre-rebate price or walk on by. If a vendor is not willing to give me their best price just because I walke in the door, they don't deserve my business.
