View Full Version : Blu-ray Movie Rebate Update
beatboy77 01-28-07, 03:11 PM I sent in two seperate rebates from the PS3 coupon booklet I received and I have already received both of my rebates for them. I received the rebates yesterday in the mail. The entire process took around 14 days. Very slick process!!

rcavictor1956 01-28-07, 03:16 PM Yep..could not believe it. Received both in the mail yesterday easily within 30 days. I believe I sent these in around the beginning of January. Very surprised...never had a movie rebate work out in such a timely fashion. :cool:
Dave Mack 01-28-07, 04:15 PM cool, about to do mine.
ToEhrIsHuman 01-28-07, 04:30 PM got my check for X3 a couple days ago, which is even more surprising as I had screwed up and sent in the PoP rather than the UPC. your mileage may vary, however.
tracemhunter 01-28-07, 07:05 PM I am going to send mine in tomorrow. I lost the receipt for The Descent though :/ so I can only send in three. Oh well, thats the price of a BD movie anyway.
MySassyGirl 01-28-07, 07:36 PM Hello Guys,
Just wondering did any of you order from online sites like Amazon or DVDEmpire where they send packing slip receipt. Is it okay to send the packing slip?
Or is the purchase must be from a retail store?
Thanks in advance,
very cool, planning to send some in tomorrow. Thanks for the update guys
quickfire 01-28-07, 08:20 PM Sent mine in yesterday.....glad to hear about quick turn around!
Had a question I purchased Goodfellas at Newegg. On the Newegg's receipt all it says is Goodfellas. No where on the receipt does it state its a blu ray disc. Will I have an issue with this? thanks
ToEhrIsHuman 01-28-07, 08:40 PM I sent the Amazon packing slip from my X3 purchase, along with a copy of my online invoice (if I remember correctly). You can always go back and print that out from the Web site. It didn't hurt at any rate to include it.
the thing is that both the packing slip and my online invoice just says "Goodfellas" I will take the chance and send in both.
ToEhrIsHuman 01-28-07, 08:51 PM as your PoP/UPC is for the 'Goodfellas' BD, i don't think there should be any problem. as i mentioned they weren't sticklers for the UPC over the PoP, so i can't imagine why they would try to deny your claim because your receipt doesn't specifically state "Blu-ray".
jahummer 01-28-07, 09:41 PM Received my $60 yesterday as well.
eXstasie 01-28-07, 09:48 PM whoa whoa whoa...where do you get this rebate? Is it in the PS3? how much..crap! I probably throughout the rebate.
Is there anywhere to print a rebate form?
Forgot to add the checks are in the form of a postcard so don't throw them away.

Should have been in a seperate little baggie that looked like a blu-ray information packet.
Unfortunately for me most of the movies you can get a rebate on I don't want :-(.
delusive1 01-29-07, 12:05 AM got mines too!!! took two weeks since I sent it.
ckenisell 01-29-07, 12:34 AM Yep. Got mine too. Two days ago. :)
Maxx_75 01-29-07, 02:01 AM I don't like cutting up my disk packaging. They require this don't they ?
enchntr 01-29-07, 11:21 AM My PS3 didn't have a rebate booklet. :(
My PS3 didn't have a rebate booklet. :(
Are you positive? It should have been in a seperate plastic bag that looked like blu-ray info. Inside there is the booklet.
enchntr 01-29-07, 03:23 PM Are you positive? It should have been in a seperate plastic bag that looked like blu-ray info. Inside there is the booklet.
I'll have to look again, but I thought I went through it pretty thoroughly. :(
Brajesh 01-29-07, 03:40 PM Got mine too. Hope Toshiba honors their 3 free DVDs offer w/the HD-A2. Hearing about possible issues on this.
xbdestroya 01-29-07, 03:50 PM My PS3 didn't have a rebate booklet. :(
Did your PS3 come with Talladega Nights?
vincentnyc 01-29-07, 03:56 PM i mailed in 4 at the same time about a month ago.
got 3 out of the 4 rebate on sat. 1 is still missing...strange.
eXstasie 01-29-07, 04:04 PM hmm...what movies work for it?
I think I might have thrown it out...thought it was all registration crap...
Dot50Cal 01-29-07, 05:50 PM Lost my receipts for over 60$ worth of savings D:!! SAVE YOUR RECEIPTS!
got mine as well. About 4 weeks time, not too bad.
phansson 01-29-07, 06:27 PM I have received 4 out of 5 that I sent in. This was a great deal.
enchntr 01-29-07, 07:04 PM Did your PS3 come with Talladega Nights?
No, mine did not come with Talladega Nights.
I didn't have talladega nights either but it was in there.
guamster 01-29-07, 07:15 PM I sent in 4 of the rebates in late December and a fifth in early January. I received all 5 rebate checks this past weekend. Very nice.
A sixth rebate form was sent in last week. Let's see how long that one takes to process.
I already own all 3 WB movies in HD DVD so the last rebate form may go unused.

enchntr 01-29-07, 07:24 PM And double checked the box...
No rebate. :(
"I bet that golden ticket makes the chocolate taste terrible."
I got my rebates yesterday and today. I sent them all in one envelope.
puppydg68 01-29-07, 10:59 PM I'm pretty sure Canadians did not receive the coupons. I have not heard of a single canadian say they received the coupon book.
I also did not, on both mine and my fathers ps3's. purchased in canada.
madskills1182 01-30-07, 04:13 AM I hate cutting the UPCs off. If I print out scans on Glossy paper you think they would take that?
ckenisell 01-30-07, 12:15 PM I hate cutting the UPCs off. If I print out scans on Glossy paper you think they would take that?
Probably/ But who knows for sure?

There was not a coupon booklet in mine. Was this only in certain models? Is there a way to get a replacement booklet?
MySassyGirl 01-30-07, 01:15 PM It was included with Tagaleda Nights movie. If you did not get the PS3 with the free movie, then you probably didn't get the coupon. The free movie was limited in the early batch release of PS3.

Maxx_75 01-30-07, 01:29 PM I didnt get the Taladega Nights but I did get the coupon book. So that doesnt work.
MySassyGirl 01-30-07, 01:50 PM Maybe they forgot to include your free movie in that sealed envelope? heheh.. Oh well....
I didnt get the Taladega Nights but I did get the coupon book. So that doesnt work.
I didnt get the Taladega Nights but I did get the coupon book. So that doesnt work.
I just picked PS3 over the weekend from Target and didn't get Taladega Nights but got the rebates booklet. The PS3 has two packets. One has the manuals and all related to PS3 and the other packet has a small packet with promotional material for Blu-Ray. Well, not exactly promotional but has a small packet with material which had info on some PS3 game(s), a paper cut in the shape of disc with info about Blu-Ray and this rebates booklet.
kitm9891 01-30-07, 02:21 PM If Im not mistaken since Im at work, isnt there a web address to go the the Sony Rebate website and see what movies they have to offer on the deal as well as print out the submission forms? I have the booklet but Im nearly sure that this is possible, wish I could give the address right now though.
Ikari Warrior 01-30-07, 02:36 PM Anybody try using the Buy 1 get 1 free from Best Buy in conjunction with the rebate offer?

jeepbrew 01-30-07, 03:53 PM Got 5 of mine yesterday! Couldn't believe how quickly they came in.
chingko 01-30-07, 04:40 PM Could it be that if no rebate booklet is included then the unit was a return? The original buyer did not include the booklet upon returning. Just a guess.
xbdestroya 01-31-07, 12:33 PM Question to those that did it already - did you send them all in the same envelope, or one envelope per rebate?
Question to those that did it already - did you send them all in the same envelope, or one envelope per rebate?
I sent mine in separate envelopes - don't know why, just felt better doing it that way. Received multiple checks at the same time.
plasmabuyer 01-31-07, 02:16 PM Ok I just spoke to Ruth in the rebate center and she said that they need the UPC!!!! :eek: :eek:
Why can they not use the proof-of-purchase tags that are on our disks????
Has anyone been lucky with getting their rebate check by just sending these small tags??
I thought these tags were there for this exact same reason...to send to the rebate centers or the mfr. in case of any issue!?! - what gives?
guamster 01-31-07, 02:18 PM Question to those that did it already - did you send them all in the same envelope, or one envelope per rebate?
The first 3 were sent in one envelope. The other 2 were in separate envelopes.
I received all 5 checks on the same day.
ajamils 02-02-07, 10:26 AM If i buy movies online (ebay for example), can I still get a rebate ? Can I just print out the checkout page (paypal) and send it as a receipt ?
ckenisell 02-02-07, 10:45 AM If i buy movies online (ebay for example), can I still get a rebate ? Can I just print out the checkout page (paypal) and send it as a receipt ?
[sarcasm]No. Absolutely not.[/sarcarm] :rolleyes:
This thread is only 2 pages long and there are tons of other threads on this topic. Every singe one already states that this rebate program does NOT exclude online purchases.

Sully907 02-02-07, 11:15 AM Damn i looked in my ps3 box and i dn't see any,i either didn't get them or i threw them away by accident,bummer.
space2001 02-02-07, 11:31 AM Canadians always get screwed with these deals just liek the 2 for 1 at best buy
ckenisell 02-02-07, 11:48 AM exclude or include ? :rolleyes:
What does my post say?
Or better yet, go back and read this thread again from the beginning and you'll get your answer. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
I got all my rebates back a few days ago, I mailed them out pretty much the first day I got my PS3.
Canadians always get screwed with these deals just liek the 2 for 1 at best buy
Then move to the US, if you hate getting screwed soo much. Seriously :)
ToddUGA 02-05-07, 09:16 AM I didn't get a rebate book with mine either. :(
Which movies have rebate?
MySassyGirl 02-06-07, 06:00 PM http://www.blu-raymovierebate.com/movies.html
Which movies have rebate?
Which ones are worth buying?
I got myself T2 and Underworld!
I hated click
MySassyGirl 02-06-07, 07:42 PM I would pick Click for $5 after rebate. I would hate to cut the UPC code off from The Underwold for the rebate :)
italysfinest327 02-10-07, 12:36 PM received one rebate today will send my other in tomorrow. and just a heads up i sent in a copy printed out on photo paper and they accepted it. so you dont have to cut out the upc on the cover
pedrojunkie 02-10-07, 01:29 PM received one rebate today will send my other in tomorrow. and just a heads up i sent in a copy printed out on photo paper and they accepted it. so you dont have to cut out the upc on the cover
Also I recieved mine from Fox and I sent in just the stupid little 'proof of purchase' cut out not the whole upc code.
w1ngman 02-18-07, 09:50 PM Hmm... I sent off 4 rebate submissions (separate envelopes for 4 separate titles) and last week I received 2 $10 rebate checks. I smell a rat! :wondersifthepostmankeptacouple:
tracemhunter 02-18-07, 09:57 PM I sent mine in last Saturday. Hopefully they come soon.
I can't find my rebate booklet anywhere. I know I didnt throw it away, now im wondering why in the world anyone would want to steal a rebate booklet when I dont even know anyone with a blu-ray player.
What are you guys talking about please?
I just bought a PS3 last night but have not yet open it.
Thanks
w1ngman 02-19-07, 08:25 AM 1st 400K PS3s had a "blu-ray movie titles rebate booklet" included (along with a so-so copy of Talli. Nights). Select titles listed offered $10/movie mail-in rebate
Jonathan Hickey 02-19-07, 09:24 AM My PS3 came with the rebate booklet, but not with TN.
(along with a so-so copy of Talli. Nights).
I think you're being generous. ;)
dlconner 02-19-07, 09:55 AM I think you're being generous. ;)
You took the words right out of my mouth. I think I actually lost brain cells watching that thing...
I made it about five minutes into it before I retired it back into the PS3 box in the basement... the wife walked out of the room after about 3 minutes. Even the PQ of this flick was fair at best.
Has anyone bought any of these "used" off Amazon and recieved a rebate? Let me know ASAP, I'm placing an order. :)
There are a couple of these that are just too expensive new, but the used prices (+ rebate) are low enough to get me to buy...
Well I guess I'll find out if they are okay with used purchases, I bought two of five used. Nothing in the terms says no and talking to a CS rep leads me to believe they will honor the rebate... although I expect to get screwed. :D
Now I'll just have to wait the 37 weeks for Amazon to ship me my stuff... :rolleyes:
heavyharmonies 02-19-07, 01:20 PM I'm still pissed off at the following wording on the web site:
See below for qualifying Blu-ray disc movies from all participating studios. More titles will be added throughout the promotion, so be sure to check back often!
They haven't added a single [CENSORED] title to that page since it went up in mid-November!
I'm holding off sending in my rebates, since for some of the studios the 3 movies are abysmal, and I've purchased other films from those studios, but according to the terms of the rebate they do not yet qualify.
Grrr.....
Edit: I just got off the phone with customer service after calling the 800 number at the bottom of the web page. The wording on the web page is WRONG! Additional titles will NOT be added. So the only titles that qualify are those listed. Looks like I may have a few rebate coupons to sell/give away since the movies suck...
I bought a PS3 10 days ago - no free DVD or rebate form - I checked twice

Well thats gay.
talbain 02-19-07, 01:49 PM What are you guys talking about please?
I just bought a PS3 last night but have not yet open it.
Thanks
lol well why not open it and find out for yourself what the discussion is about :confused:
talbain 02-19-07, 01:50 PM 1st 400K PS3s had a "blu-ray movie titles rebate booklet" included (along with a so-so copy of Talli. Nights). Select titles listed offered $10/movie mail-in rebate
that's not accurate. all currently shipping ps3s (could be exclusive to 60gb version, i don't know) have the coupon booklet...
also, mysassygirl, can you explain how to get click for $5 after rebate? where is it on sale for $15?

Google Checkout w/ buy.com

duh. i don't think i got enough sleep last night. thanks...
MySassyGirl 02-19-07, 04:37 PM bestbuy had a buy 1 get 1 free; therefore, ~$15 for each movie.

Just did. I have the booklet too.Ill be getting T2,underworld and gone in 60 sec
Does the rebate work if I buy the movie from Target.com , Walmart.com Etc?

Yes.
Hmm... I sent off 4 rebate submissions (separate envelopes for 4 separate titles) and last week I received 2 $10 rebate checks. I smell a rat! :wondersifthepostmankeptacouple:
They may break it up by studios (ie. Fox goes to this group, Liongates goes to this group, etc...) thus one group maybe faster than another. Are your rebates for the same studio?
w1ngman 02-23-07, 02:18 PM You give me hope! No, as I recall, the rebates were definitely from differing studios. So I'll keep my eyes peeled at the mailbox.
Thanks!
w1ngman 02-23-07, 06:54 PM Whaddayaknow!!! Tonight's mailbox greeted me with the other two $10 rebates :).
Either that, or my mailman lurks on avsforum.com...and got askerd :D.
tlreddragon 02-23-07, 07:52 PM Sent mine in about 3 weeks ago and still haven't received anything. :(
Doesn't the rebate go to the same address? I was first worried because I had bought two movies from different studios on one receipt. I initially thought I had to send them into separate address' and yet I had only one receipt and they want originals. Correct me if I am wrong, but I have four on three different receipts with two on one receipt as I said before. Can't I send them all in one envelope to the one address?
Arpeggi 02-23-07, 09:05 PM Just got my rebate! I sent a copy of the PoP on regular paper and I still got it.
WOOO!
Just got my rebate today too. Its been about three weeks.
Whaddayaknow!!! Tonight's mailbox greeted me with the other two $10 rebates :).
Either that, or my mailman lurks on avsforum.com...and got askerd :D.
Similar thing happened to me... I sent in 6 rebates (all at once) and 4 of the 6 checks came early last week. The final 2 didn't come until today.
Whaddayaknow!!! Tonight's mailbox greeted me with the other two $10 rebates :).
Either that, or my mailman lurks on avsforum.com...and got askerd :D.
Great ;) like I mentioned before each studio probably has their own group so one group may just be a bit faster than the other...
tracemhunter 02-24-07, 06:22 PM I got all three (I think I sent in three) of my rebates today for Goodfellas, Underworld Evolution, and Invincible. Looks like I am only going to have to buy Casino Royale two Tuesdays from now and will consider Layer Cake as "free" :). I think it took around two weeks from dropping it into the blue box to getting the checks in the mail.
bump to my post # 95. Anyone?
Arpeggi 02-24-07, 07:51 PM Anyone wants to trade me their "Lionsgate" rebate (T2, Crash and The Descent). I already used mine for The Descent but would also like to get a rebate on Crash and T2.
I have:
Warner (Goodfellas, FMJ or Superman Returns)
Paramount (Tomb Raider, MI 3, Nacho Libre)
Sony (Underworld, Click, Talledega Nights)
Disney (Glory Road, Invincible, Chicken Little)
Buena Vista (Jay and Silent Bob, Gone in 60 Seconds, Enemy of the State)
PM me if interested.
bump to my post # 95. Anyone?
I think you can use a copy of the receipt. They can see that you have two movies on one receipt, I would think they have alittle smarts and can figure it out :cool:
w1ngman 02-24-07, 08:42 PM Great ;) like I mentioned before each studio probably has their own group so one group may just be a bit faster than the other...
Yup...makes sense. Althought all the rebates go to the same clearing house address, one could imagine that such a clearing house will not issue a rebate until they, first, have been reimbursed by the particular studio. Cuz who's gonna pay out up-front (except, of course, us the customers :p).
Thanks again.
- Dave
CleveNC23 02-24-07, 11:20 PM Does anyone have the Lionsgate Rebate from the Sony Blu-Ray Player that includes the movie "Crank"? I will trade someone for that one if they have it? Send me an e-mail or just post it on here.
I have these rebates available:
Buena Vista: (Jay & Silent Bob, Enemy of the State, Gone in 60 Seconds)
Fox: (Transporter, X3, Speed)
Lionsgate: (T2, The Descent, Crash)
Warner Brothers: (Full Metal Jacket, Superman Returns, Goodfellas)
Thanks
hockeynut 02-25-07, 11:38 AM Anyone have any suggestions for removing proof of purchase without having to cut into the plastic sleeve?
hockeynut 02-25-07, 11:40 AM Duh! Nevermind. You simply just open the case.
Sometimes I just scare myself!
tlreddragon 02-25-07, 12:15 PM Duh! Nevermind. You simply just open the case.
Sometimes I just scare myself!
Jesus... my head hurts now. JK. I finally received mine yesterday. All 5 checks at once!
talbain 02-25-07, 10:41 PM guys: i know target isn't quite the location to buy blu ray movies because of their terrible selection, but i came across something some of you might find useful. i've now bought 3 movies for this promotion from target, and in each of the cases (t2, x3 and nacho libre), target put a sticker of the upc on the outside of the plastic wrap of the discs. i simply peel off the upc sticker to mail in for the rebates, and my cases are unharmed...
DavidHir 03-17-07, 04:26 PM I only received two rebate checks last week......four still have not arrived. Any reason for concern?
kbuckner007 03-17-07, 09:46 PM Anyone send a reciept from ebay with a rebate form. Just wondering
ResOGlas 03-17-07, 09:48 PM I don't want to damage my inserts for a rebate! :eek: :mad:

Someone mentioned that you can xerox a copy of the proof of purchase, and that'll work. I never tried t.
stevenjw 03-17-07, 10:35 PM Looking for another Lionsgate or Fox rebate coupon for trade? I have WB, Paramount, Disney and BVHE coupons for exchange. Send PM. Thanks....
impala454 12-18-07, 10:17 PM I Figured I'd just re-use this thread.
I purchased a Panny BD30K from Best Buy on November 17th, and submitted my rebate that same day.
I received my five free blu-ray movies today (Pirates 1, Species, Superman, Patriot, American Psycho).
Pretty quick turnaround.
I just recieved my second post card from BDA trying to get me to cancel my rebate for 5 Blu-ray movies. This rebate request was from a PS3 I bought in early August... even HD DVD at their worst never took this long. I did a couple of those rebates.
What gives? Are we supposed to let Sony just do anything they want?
There are two choices on the response card received today.
A) I accept that there will be further delays on my order.
B) Please cancel my order.
What the heck kind of business practice is that after nearly 6 months?
lrstevens421 02-25-08, 05:38 PM That's strange. I sent in a rebate form in November and received the movies in January.

They have to be using multiple companies to handle these rebate offers. I had no issues with the HD-DVD or Blu-Ray rebates. I received the HD-DVDs in about 7 weeks, and the Blu-Ray movies in less than 4 weeks.
I must admit I was very very suprised by this considering all of the issues others have had, I sent my form for the HD-DVDs in November, and the Blu-Ray form in late January.
Sorry about your luck, its really a shame that they cant seem to handle the situation better.
nelsona 02-25-08, 05:46 PM No problems here. Sent my rebate in the first week of January, and got them today.
Scribblez 02-25-08, 05:49 PM I sent out my form early December when I got my PS3 and also still waiting on my movies. No sign of anything so far including postcards. But then again, I live in Canada.
Although, I no longer have the previous card they sent me in ealy January.. the tone of this one is different. The other card gave an eta.. something like 2/11 and this one seems to imply that if you don't return and they don't recieve the card indicating a willingness to wait they are going to cancel the order.
Sony can't distance theirselves from this with the suggestion this is an issue with the fullfillment company. It was a Sony offer. I bought a PS3 direct from SonyStyle. Now a half year later, they are trying to get people just say oh well, why bother waiting anymore.
Sony never ceases to amaze me at what they will do.
I purchased a new Playstation 3 60Gb in January 2008 on the Internet. My receipt was from a different state, but it was still honored. I submitted the rebate in January and I received my free 5 blu-ray discs in April 2008. It was a long wait, but I did receive the discs.
:)
