The rebate is directly from HP so I feel confident about that. I purchased w/ my Amex card. So if they do try to give me a refurbished item I will let Amex deal with them.
I did send them an email asking them to confirm that they are not sending me a refurbish item, and to cancel my order if that was their intent.
I will let you know what happens.

I’ll stick to buying from companies I know and I don’t generally buy much on the internet unless it’s from HP, Staples, Quill or Office Max. I’ll pay the extra for the peace of mind.

The PCRush printer is a great deal. I'd call my credit card company to make sure I understand my rights. In most cases, if you're the victim of fraud and you've charged that fraud on your credit card you can leverage the credit card company's power to have the deal made right. PayPals offers it's own assurances plus or minus the credit card company. The issue is time-value vs. lower cost. For years I'd spend hundreds of dollars in billable hours chasing a deal. I've since learned that just doesn't pay. For example, I don't do business with ECost or Tiger because I've been sucked into those great rebate deals but the rebate checks never come. The problem with rebates is that you do go ahead and pay that bill because rebates don't process for months - and you're prepared for that - so the problem doesn't happen until it's too late to react to it.
