$750 - (0.7x750)+shipping=$Actual Cost

I had both my online rebate submission and my mailed submission denied. My online submission used the substituted UPC code in the pull down menu as per: So I spoke to someone who had a clue at Vista.
The issue is this. The SKU: E45184HI is valid for the rebate. The problem is, the UPC they have associated with it in their system does not match the UPC on the box of the scope. The box shows: 029757451804. The UPC they have associated with this scope is 029757451835, so the last 2 digits are different. I was instructed to submit the rebate with the UPC he provided me ending in 35, but MAKE SURE the actual item SKU is on there as well - easy fix since I'm taking a picture of the box to submit the online rebate. They would look it up based on that.
Since it's an online submission, I'm going to try that after work today and let it run until right before the deadline for paper submission. If it is not approved, or I don't get confirmation, then I'll mail in all the info with a rebate form that does not exclude this scope. Then I mailed in a submission per a phone conversation with Vista and this: Just got off the phone with vista outdoors who is handling the rebate crap for Bushnell 30 for 30. They told me that I will have to send in the rebate form I have which does not exclude the 4.5-18x44 LRHSi and they will honor it. We will see, I talked with an Ashley on 3/1/18 who punched in the product# for the scope and it was good. Yesterday i tried to submit the rebate info through the website, and all of a sudden the upc codes were rejected, hence the call today.
Today I asked for a supervisor thinking they would be aware of this issue, but she seemed numb to it. Her name was Jonella, she was the one who said, send it in and we will take care of it. When I asked her what happens if it doesn't go through, she said call back and they will honor it because this conversation is recorded.
So if you guys call today ask for Jonella, if we get enough to call we better our chances. Great deal even without the rebate, but it's the point that they switched it after the fact. Then on Tuesday 3/27, after both submissions were rejected, I called and explained the situation. The representative expeditiously corrected the situation and arranged for the appropriate rebate to be sent out. Vista’s response was first class.

Mine is in house via mail with Vista and pending. I anticipate having to make a phone call to correct it. We'll see. At least they are making it right in the end.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Heard a rumor that they are taking deposits on them ($500) for when they com in, in July. I’d be reluctant to give em that much cash up front.

So I call Vista after my rebate was rejected yesterday.
I get a Derrick who acts knowledgeable about the problem and claims there is nothing he can do about it. He says he got an updated list from Bushnell "in the last day" and the E45184HI is not on the approved list.
I asked for a supervisor and he said there's no use. This scope is not being honored.
NOT GOOD on Bushnell.

GAP didn't try to swindle anyone on these scopes,and you have the extra protection of the CC anyway. I would just make sure the statement would reflect that it was a deposit on item not yet received.

Mine was rejected initially with the mail in rebate (I used the correct form), made one call, spoke with Derrick, problem solved in 5 minutes or less. FWIW Thanks to those who did the legwork prior. I did promise the Visa rebate card to my wife, which made things a little smoother around the house
