Important: Buy.com orders with Google Checkout. How to get free shipping and rebates [Get this deal] from deals site SlickDeals Update on Buy.com $10 off $30 Google Checkout: As of now, it looks like Buy.com tightened the restrictions on using free shipping.
* If all items within your cart have a green truck icon then you get free shipping on your entire order.
* If you add $30+ worth of non-games, non-apparel items all of which have the grey truck icon and says "Free shipping on orders over $25" then you will get free shipping on your entire order. Several DVDs have the grey truck, so some good deals can be found.
* If you mix-and-match green truck items with grey truck items, it no longer gives free shipping.
How to get your Rebates With Google Checkout
If you purchased an item with a rebate from Buy.com using Google Checkout, submit the Buy.com purchase receipt to the rebate company. Most rebates require a sales receipt from the retailer (Buy.com). Even if Google sent you a sales receipt, Google acted as a third-party payment processor (similar to using Paypal with a purchase on Ebay), so rebate companies probably will not accept the Google Checkout receipt as proof of purchase. If you did not receive a sales receipt from Buy.com, do this:
1. Go to Buy.com, and log out if you are already logged in.
2. Click "My Account" in the upper-right.
3. Click "Order Lookup" on the right side.
4. Enter the 8-digit order number you received through email from Buy.com (not the 11-digit order number received from Google). Also enter your Name and Phone Number where prompted.
5. Next page will display the order details.
6. Click on "View Receipt" and print it. | |
