Order from Focus Camera without form required for rebate

Archived from groups: rec.photo.digital (More info?)

My wife bought me a camera for Christmas, and she found the best price at
Focus Camera, _and_ it offered a hundred dollar mail-in rebate. She was
looking at all the forms today, and she has to return the yellow portion of
the Worldwide Warranty card. There isn't one. There's a US warranty notice,
instead.

I googled rec.photo.* for Focus Camera and found mixed answers. Anybody
have any clue on what the story is here? I've already bookmarked New York's
consumer fraud Web page, but I'm hoping to straighten it out with Focus
Camera on the phone. Based on others' experiences, it seems I'll just get
hung up on, though.

For others with complaints about purchases in NYC, see

Years ago I bought a camera body in NYC in person, with the promise of the
lens shipped promptly from another store -- then I got the usual backorder
runaround, and the DCA got it straightened out pronto.

Okay, I went back and read the back of the form and it says there isn't a
worldwide warranty card for these camera bodies, and it's not require. :->

Never mind.
