9 AM Central time, Black case is OOS - I purchased and they emailed me saying OOS :(

All are OOS

Binar 11-01-2012 12:39 AM

Hmm...white case ...good luck finding cheap white optical drives. Years back black optical drives were hard to find now is the other way arround. Both cases have 3.0 USB ports.Good deals. I'm wondering if the rebate is newegg(which I trust) or diablotek ( which I have no experience with).

Atachi 11-01-2012 12:51 AM

The cases have two rebates each:

Diablotek ABYSS CPA-8818-BK Black Edition SECC
Diablotek Abyss CPA-8818-WT White Edition SECC
If you're silly enough to buy a refurbished power supply from Diablotek,
SPARKLE FSP300-60ATV 300W ATX12V Power Supply

deepfriedskunk 11-01-2012 12:52 AM

Can't complain about free cases! The power supply, on the other hand, I wouldn't hook up to anything precious...these cheap supplies have a real likelihood of frying, especially considering that they have a supply of refurbished ones.

junhao123 11-01-2012 12:56 AM

so we can't grab both, right?

On paper..the rebate that you send to diablotek is processed in CA . Worst case you have the AG and the amazing consumer laws on your side. The newegg rebate is golden. Newegg will pay their rebates ..

Atachi 11-01-2012 01:03 AM

Even with consumer protection laws, I wouldn't bother getting two cases. Not worth the time and hassle if something goes wrong.

In a related note, looks like:

ARCTIC COOLING MX-2 Thermal Compound [newegg.com] (4g) is free after a $10.99 Newegg rebate [rebateaccess.com]

Nothing listed on the Newegg website about it yet, but something to keep an eye out for.

Looks like Diablotek rebates are not so golden. Not any really recent complaints, just seeing older ones about the rebates taking 5+ month to process with customer intervention and some never showing up at all.

Rebates say nothing about refurb. OP linked to refurb units, which is apparently all Newegg has in stock. Anyone have experience trying to get Diablotek and Newegg rebates on refurbs?

Kinda worried due to their "no refund, exchange only" policy on refurbed cases. Don't wanna be stuck with overpriced stuff if refurbs don't qualify. But I have hope... come on Newegg update your page already!

baonguyen312 11-01-2012 01:40 AM

Just for sure. I just chat with Newegg online supporter "Jay". He confirmed this item qualifies for both rebates. In worth case Diablotek doesn't send out their rebate, Newegg will honor it.

thanks ill order it!

but just a noob question regarding rebates...

i just recently moved but my billing address is still my old address.

if i order it, the receipt will show my old billing address and my new shipping address. will i qualify for the rebate if i put down my new address as the address on the rebate form??? (so that the rebate will arrive at my new address)

I think Newegg just accept to ship an item to the same address with the billing one. Any changes?

I'm almost positive that the billing address for the order must match the address you use for the rebate.

Yes, you can. But you have to get 1 black and 1 white case.

xChanX 11-01-2012 02:21 AM

can you get one case of each color for free after rebate? i see that the newegg rebate has different promo but the diablotek one is the same for both. it says "limit one per address"

Since 2 item colors have 2 separate UPC code numbers, you can get 1 of each color, just don't get 2 same item.

You just have to purchase it by 11/7, you have 30 days from the purchase date to submit the rebate.

But, don't quite understand why the case is not letting me do the usual online sign up for the rebate and then print the rebate form to mail it in. When I try to do it, get message:

"The type of submit you're trying is not allowed for this promotion."

It seems to be requiring a paperless rebate submission. Unusual?

after a second look, it says the rebate must be postmarked before 12/7. purchase date must be between 11/1 to 11/7. so it has a month for the product to ship and arrive. worst case scenario, is call the CSR and redeem MIR that way.

I don't know... the rebate form is kind of misleading.

It lists both colors and item #'s under the $30 heading... but yet below it says:
"Limit one (1) Diablotek Rebate per customer on this Promotion."

Under that premise, you could get 2 per person under the same address, as long as you had different billing names.

I somehow don't buy that they are going to pay out like that to the same household.

Each color is technically a different rebate, so I would need clarification before I ordered more than 1 per household.

Newegg won't provide clarification via chat and instead told me to contact Diablotek directly.

i just chatted with newegg customer support. amazingly, they said the address on the rebates do not have to match the billing address! (regardless if i use paypal or not)

i really dont trust her word on that though... just doesnt seem right.

i guess i wont order yet. im with customer support at my bank right now trying to change my billing address.

i hope its still in stock after im done talking with my bank.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly.

It says, "Limit one (1) Diablotek Rebate per customer on this Promotion."

Each color, to me, is a separate rebate. I wouldn't order more than one per billing address if you aren't comfortable with eating $30 when they deny or modify your submission.

On an unrelated note, the power supplies have a Limit of 2 per household.

Go for it. If it was returned it was no doubt a matter of taste.
I think it was unlikely someone had a full build and found the power switch was wonky.

The way I read the Diablotek rebate at least, the same promotion covers both colors. Limit 1 total.

The only way they can not lose money on "promos" like these is to not fulfill the rebates. A certain number are not sent in, but the proportion is too low. If they have as good a reason for denying as someone getting 2 when it's limit 1, I suspect they will take advantage of it. If that's not enough, they just blow off a certain percentage of legit claims.

You can absolutely get your money if you start making noise, the question is whether it is worth the trouble. Last time I tried something like this, I didn't get my rebate on some FAR 2.5" enclosure. I complained to Newegg and Newegg contacted the manufacturer. The manufacturer sent me a check, for a couple bucks less than the promised amount. Then it was not worth my trouble to complain.

you should just order it because fighting it isnt hard.

if needed, just send an email or two to diablotek. if that doesnt work, just contact newegg. they'll back you up for sure. just make sure to fill out the rebates correctly and scan copies of each item for submission.

with a FAR motherboard deal, cheapo ddr3 ram, and amd quad-core processor deals for under $80, you could build a really good budget pc.

I'm taking advantage of these deals to slowly assemble parts for a new pc. im currently still using ddr2 8500 with a usb 2.0 case and phenom II 710x 2.6ghz processor that ive had for about 3+ years. time to upgrade!

wasabi_fu 11-01-2012 04:30 AM

FYI, seems to me that this is only one free case after rebate(s). If you buy both cases, the Diablotek rebate, per the terms, is "Limit one (1) Diablotek Rebate per customer on this Promotion". The newegg rebates are unique, so no problem with those.

2. It's rated 5 eggs with 58 reviews

This is what Slickdeals.net claim "Slickdeals.net prides itself on being user and community focused, never allowing paid placement for frontpage deal listings."

If so, then how the duck in the world they know what newegg will offer when there is no official deal posted on neweggs web site?

Does slickdeals MODs get dream about future newegg deals? or santa came too early to tell them?

The ultra-cheap computer is becoming a reality.

After rebate, my total is now $29.90, and I have the motherboard, RAM, PSU, and case. :)

Broncowolf 11-01-2012 05:22 AM

Doesn't seem to be free to me after rebate. Is this deal dead? The white case is $59.99 with a $30 rebate and the black case is $49.99 with a $30 rebate.

If so, then how the duck in the world they know what newegg will offer when there is no official deal posted on neweggs web site?

Does slickdeals MODs get dream about future newegg deals? or santa came too early to tell them?

Did someone just complained that someone at SD is an Newegg insider and gets advanced deal notifications?

The only way they can not lose money on "promos" like these is to not fulfill the rebates. A certain number are not sent in, but the proportion is too low. If they have as good a reason for denying as someone getting 2 when it's limit 1, I suspect they will take advantage of it. If that's not enough, they just blow off a certain percentage of legit claims.

You can absolutely get your money if you start making noise, the question is whether it is worth the trouble. Last time I tried something like this, I didn't get my rebate on some FAR 2.5" enclosure. I complained to Newegg and Newegg contacted the manufacturer. The manufacturer sent me a check, for a couple bucks less than the promised amount. Then it was not worth my trouble to complain.


exactly!

danrc 11-01-2012 05:35 AM

I'm tempted to buy the power supply, I need need a replacement for an old computer. I have a new psu with sata connections, should I get this or buy molex adaptors for my newer psu? The cheapest I can find is $5 for 10 adapters. My psu is bronze certified.

jimbeau 11-01-2012 05:44 AM

I see a $30 and a $29 rebate with a $59 price tag. Manufacturers rebate and Newegg rebate. Black or white? Which is the one to get, if any?

RomanG 11-01-2012 05:46 AM

Great Deal! In for 1.. Anybody having trouble with the registration form for the Newegg rebate? I click on "Click Here to Register for this Offer", and get "The type of submit you're trying is not allowed for this promotion."

How can I submit 2 copies of original UPC? Newegg and manufactory rebates both require original UPC

GQone76 11-01-2012 06:25 AM

dont' know about this deal both NewEgg and Diablotek Rebate is asking for Original UPC, which means you can only use one therefore can't be free

I see this on the Newegg Rebate page [rebateaccess.com]:
Quote:

a copy of the UPC code(s) of the purchased eligible product(s).
Am *I* missing something? (That's for the cases, BTW.)

hmm guess for Newegg you can submit it as paperless through online to make it work, good catch,

RomanG 11-01-2012 06:30 AM

The Newegg instruction PDF form states in #4 "Enclose a copy of the orginal UPC code", plus if you do it online, you would just need to scan it and upload the image.

GQone76 11-01-2012 06:33 AM

ya seems I've misread, does state specifically copy of original UPC not actual original UPC, sorry.

NuNuNYC 11-01-2012 06:37 AM

Thanks OP! Got a Black one!! Sad that I missed the Thermaltake Dokker case for $20 a week ago, so hoping this will make me feel better.

jimbeau 11-01-2012 06:38 AM

most buying the black?

techken 11-01-2012 06:40 AM

the PSU is OOS :(

deelseaker 11-01-2012 06:41 AM

Call me naive in hoping that the Diablotek rebate will be (relatively) pain-free, but I think the white case deal is very appealing. Nothing wrong with the black case being FAR, obviously, but I have a suspicion that the white version usually has a higher shipping fee tacked on. With shipping being free now, I am going ahead and jumping on it.

baublitz 11-01-2012 06:50 AM

I went with the white case, like my old XPS 410! How about everyone else?

jimbeau 11-01-2012 07:00 AM

Got one. Now to find cheap stuff to fill the case. Thanks OP! Repped.

Spartanicus 11-01-2012 07:01 AM

black case is sold out

caychanh30 11-01-2012 07:02 AM

Just scored the black case. earned $1.5 after cashback :P
The black case was in and out of stock when I was trying to order.

jtxdd 11-01-2012 07:11 AM

In for a white one. Newegg is always good. They ate the cost of four Xigmatek rebates for me.

NJMaster 11-01-2012 07:36 AM

In 4 1 white case! Thank you.

So where is the rebate form for $59.99??

White optical drive not necessary, because the front side of case where optical drives are installed are all black.

deskjockey 11-01-2012 07:37 AM

Just read the Newegg rebate and it says "6. Not combinable with any other offer."

So I suspect this is either rebate but not both.

sharkbait689 11-01-2012 07:38 AM

For those of us resisting the temptation, hold, brothers! The black ones have sold out and the white ones will soon follow!

TrystinJ 11-01-2012 07:49 AM

I got a case and compound. Did I need it? Not in the least. Now lets hope I remember to do the rebates unlike the over $1000 worth of ones I haven't done this year

you can do both rebates. i specifically asked newegg customer service if you could qualify for both rebates. they said yes :)

if you read the entire thread, another person asked customer service the same exact question too.

in any event, they are separate rebates... how would newegg know that you submitted a rebate to diablotek? or how would diablotek know you submitted one to newegg? they wont!

ksquires1991 11-01-2012 08:07 AM

My experience when calling both rebate house and customer service to get two confirmirmations is that processing department and can take a different opinion. It has more often been consistent with the original claims but not always. I've eaten 5 of them in the past 6 months even though I wrote names down, exact time of communication and all details (not NewEgg).

What prompted my concern is that at the top right where the price is and the rebate link, it shows the economics of the transaction and not the $0 dollars. That prompted my reading the rebate suspecting they are not stackable that in fact it states.

Regarding the vendor/rebate house checking with the retailer, they do that automatically so folks can't return something and keep the rebate.

gymsock 11-01-2012 11:08 AM

Went ahead and ordered the black case and the thermal compound.

BTW, it's letting you do a regular newegg online rebate registration and print form to be mailed on the case now instead of just paperless submission.

xChanX 11-01-2012 12:20 PM

So the people here bought only 1 case because of the rebate restrictions? Or there's a lot of people out there that bought both cases to fill out under 1 address?

how do you know they automatically check with the vendor to see if it has been returned?

i would think they dont have the manpower to check every product purchased. also, i figured they'd just assume it hasnt been returned since you need to cut out the UPC for the mail in rebate. by cutting it out, it voids the return already.

Firebird 11-01-2012 02:11 PM

for everyone who was doubtful if both rebates would go through because the top-right portion of the product page doesnt say $0.00 FAR, check out this link to a promotion ad!!

http://promotions.newegg.com/NEem...rt-_-promo

it clearly shows the diablotek computer case is free after $49.99 in mail in rebates!

Firebird,

You are the man! Excellent point on the email promotion that I get each morning but never read because I only check here for the deals, needing the comments and strategy before I move on anything.

Regarding vendor, rebate house, manpower, and UPC, some retailers and rebate houses appear to have that computerized, for example Advanced Auto. While speaking with the rebate house and orally giving them some numbers from my cash register receipt on the phone he said their access to Advance Auto's computer was down right then but when they could access it again he'll confirm my purchase and get back. And he did an hour later. So they were tied into some of the receipt data.

Some take back product without UPC, when UPC copy is required or when just writing the # is requested.

Appreciate your efforts.

received both my cases just now! i don't think these are refurbs (at least not mines). came in original boxing and packaging with no signs of any wears. glad to get on this.

now im debating if i should send both rebates for both cases or one. afraid that one will get denied. anyone know how to do the newegg rebates online?

fbueller 11-02-2012 06:26 PM

Note that the case box has TWO UPC's on it. Problem solved, all set for a nice freebie. My case looks brand new, and it's actually pretty nice (this is coming from someone with an Antec P280). It's a little cheap feeling, but nice looking and really thoughtfully made.

gymsock 11-02-2012 07:55 PM

For the rebates should I submit the "Invoice Details" from the newegg website for the order or the invoice I received by e-mail? Both look pretty complete, does it matter which one you submit? Don't want to screw up with Diablotek

Well just in case anyone's interested it doesn't say Sparkle on it. It says FSP which I think is the OEM for Antec and Sparkle.

Sparkle was an independent brand and manufacturer, since acquired by FSP. I recall Delta and FSP as the other two brands most likely to manufacture power supplies likely to meet the specs on the data plate.

FSP is one Antec OEM, they have used others.

I guess you can be fairly sure that Seasonics are manufactured by Seasonic, but with only a little exaggeration you could say that anything could be OEM by anybody. Edit: these days... :)

The Diablotek manufacturer rebate says:
"Please staple or cling the UPC barcode labels here."

"Submit this rebate form completely filled out with a copy of invoice and the original UPC labels from package."

From that... it sounds like they want both? Am I reading too much into this?

I mean, the rebate says "Limit one (1) Diablotek Rebate per customer on this Promotion."

The Newegg one only requests a copy of the UPC anyways.

RussellJohnson 11-04-2012 04:37 PM

The UPC code does not fit on the form. WTF diablotek.

I'm attaching both UPCs from the black and white case on the form. Then I'm gonna write on it: Total $60 rebate.

I just don't know where to staple it as the UPC code is way bigger than the place they provide.

lol, I don't know. I just have a feeling they are going to find any reason they can to deny it.

I was contemplating getting two cases like you did on one rebate form, but I stuck with one per address because the rebate instructions were a little unclear.

I sent both the original UPCs from the product box to Diablotek, attached with tape, in the middle of the rebate form above the name field. I didn't really want to staple those gigantic UPCs in the center of the form. Good enough... I'm sure I'll be calling them in 5 months when we still don't have our rebates.

Its all I got, so I guess it will do.

jay99 11-06-2012 05:45 PM

For $30 rebate, it is better to include both UPC labels since it is required. It says "Submit the original UPC barcode labels".

Did anyone have any bad or good experiences with Diablotek rebate?

To my knowledge, connecting a USB 2.0 will not fit to a USB 3.0 as the USB 3.0 is a 20 pin and not sure hw many pin is the USB 2.0 but I am sure it is less which will not fit with each other.

You are right. But there are two plugs on the end of the cable to the front USB 3.0 ports. One is a blue 20-pin female USB 3.0. The other one is a black 10-pin female with a "USB" white mark. To me it seems there is a 2.0 to 3.0 inline adapter inside. Thanks.

I was wrong in my previous post. The other plug is a 10-pin plug (9-pin actually).

Anyone have the diablotek rebate number?

lethalsvt 12-16-2012 04:06 PM

Same here. Waiting for a 29.99 and 30 one. No word on either. For the white atx case

luckypra 12-19-2012 11:33 AM

Same here no email regarding $30 rebate. Just called them and the girl over phone confirmed they received my rebate and its in processing stage. She given me some id# for rebate for checking status for next time.

for other $20 rebate from newegg received email like 2-3 weeks back saying received and processing.

Edward266 01-01-2013 11:39 AM

Has anyone heard on the ABYSS Case Rebate for $30 yet? I have emailed them 3 times and still nothing. Does anyone have a contact number for Diablotek Rebates?

just received my 2x $30 rebate today. Mailed the original rebate shortly after receiving the cases

EmptorOcculta 01-03-2013 03:12 PM

Crikey, still haven't gotten any word or email about the rebates, guess I'll have to contact them.

Firebird 01-04-2013 01:42 PM

i bought the black abyss case. i received the diablotek manufacturer's rebate for $30 today!!!!

im still waiting on the $20 rebate from newegg though. im actually surprised the manufacturer's rebate came quicker than newegg's rebate.

Just got a rebate from 3 Dragon Rebates for $30 (bought white case), Is this from DIABLOTEK? or from Newegg? I'm guess from DIABLOTEK but could you come firm with me? I still haven't got the other rebate yet and both is $30 so don't know whos is whos.

I got my $30 rebate today, and just a FYI I only sent in one UPC from the box.

Also, have not received my newegg rebate yet.

I received the $30 rebate from "3 Dragon" aka DiabloTek yesterday as well.

I'm a bit surprised that the manufacturer rebate came BEFORE Newegg's as well.

But... you have to keep in mind that the same rebate processing center that does Kaspersky Rebates is fulfilling the Newegg Rebates. Kaspersky rebates take like a full 3 months easily. :shake:

petervivian 01-09-2013 06:26 PM

I received the $30 rebate from 3 Dragon Rebates today. Still waiting for newegg one.

num6 01-12-2013 05:58 PM

Sent it in near the end and received the Dragon rebate today. They didn't even bother to seal the envelope except for a tiny dot in the left corner.

Received $30 3 Dragon rebate in check on 01/15/2013. WOW, Newegg rebate is slower than manufacturer's. And TigerDirect rebate is much faster than Newegg rebate.

Both order history and rebate record exist for me. Don't know why you can't see them.

Same here. I called them earlier this week, and they said the rebate would be mailed out in mid-February. I can wait another week before I raise hell through Newegg CSRs.

Yeah, it looks like they are sending them out in batches.

A couple of other Newegg Rebate offers were mailed out to me last week according to the tracking site.

The earliest ones (Arctic Cooling MX-2 Round #1 and Diablotek) still haven't been sent out.

You gotta remember that this is the same processor as Kaspersky, so they take a very long time, but they are reliable. I would anticipate that we should all receive these by the end of February, since Kaspersky rebates usually take 12 to 14 weeks.

Same here. March 24, 2013? So "fast"? They must have a guy who will walk across the US and hand deliver all rebate checks. :D

Just got my $19.99 rebate card this morning as well as my $10.99 rebate card for the Newegg Artic Thermal Paste deal.

Firebird 02-25-2013 04:29 PM

i just got my $19.99 newegg rebate for the diablotek black case! both rebates finally received :)

deelseaker 02-25-2013 05:38 PM

Finally got mine too.

tonewaylo 02-25-2013 07:56 PM

I just went with the white case and boy... No wonder this thing was free, it's a cheap case. That $10 AR case from 2 days ago will probably beat it. I'll find out when I get it this week.

I guess it does have those filters on the bottom..and a window, but not even a top fan mount or side panel fan mount. I'm limited what I can put in as far as good air flow for a case that is >$100 non-refurbished. But hey, it was free.. After a 4 month rebate wait, just my 2 cents.

Received long-awaited rebate for the white case (wanted black version) yesterday - 02/25/2013. Just have some time to post here.

That Cooler Master case from TigerDirect sure beats this one. Besides foam filters on the bottom and front, the Diablotek case has a bottom mount for a 120 mm case fan, I guess. Be careful when you mount a mobo to the base or a graphics card to the rear. Don't mount them too tight. Otherwise you are gonna lose threads in the holes. Cheap steel causes this. All in all it is free finally.

ResidentEvil 03-05-2013 04:52 PM

Still don't have my newegg rebate.... Makes me wonder if I really should have jumped on that 50x Sony DVD-R deal the other day.

Still waiting :(

I contacted them, and they said that PO Boxes aren ot valid (even though it doesn't say it on the rebate form)

So, they are now sending out the $20. This has been some crazy waiting for $20.

petervivian 04-18-2013 11:46 AM

I didn't receive the rebate card from Newegg. So I contacted them and got this reply "A resubmission can take 4-6 weeks to process." So another month or two.

ResidentEvil 05-01-2013 05:06 AM

Finally got it yesterday.
