I just got an email from Buy.com.

This 4GB SD looked like a good deal so I went to check it out....

Hmmm.... $59.99 is Ok..... $99.99 is a pretty high buy in...... let's shop it....

Yeah... That's what I thought. $59.99 w/o a rebate.

Grr!

Still after rebate. ;)

I've seen where the COST goes up to cover a rebate, but the VAR isn't supposed to increase the sell price to reflect that increase in cost, and I know the cost wasn't doubled, so the sell price (pre-rebate) on that SD is simply stupid.

I'm sorry.... just give me upfront pricing. Quit making things LOOK like a good deal with rebates and coupons when the original price is over inflated to begin with.
