Have you called the rebate center?
Four months and I'm still waiting on the 300 dollar refund from Lowrance for the HDS8 bundle I bought late winter.... I got the refund for my trolling motor within a month and I sent them in at the same time... Boy, what a way to do business.

It says at the rebate site that they did not receive my rebate or it hasn't been typed in yet.... I figured it would be like pulling teeth to get that $300 back out of them. I'm not happy and will be posting this bad experience on all the fishing forums I belong to if this isn't dealt with by them. I sent everything in exactly as described to do. I had a bad experience with a trolling motor and one of the company executives saw my post on here and I got a reply by that evening of my initial post. I doubt Lowrance really cares though. They make it difficult to get the rebates hoping people will just forget about it.
Have you contacted Lowrance? I've had two rebates from Lowrance and haven't had any issues.
Took a few months but I got mine.

I have always thought rebates were a " shady business " practice. They make it much more difficult ( red tape ) than need be. As previously stated they are actually hoping the consumer does not bother with it.
Common sense would tell anyone if the companies selling anything. Would hold a true sale it would be more productive. In that if a 2K item was available for 1800 for a specified time 30-60 days. Then it would be a simple straight forward deal to consumer.
Manufacturers of computer parts were infamous for this. I remember fighting with several different companies over their rebate promises. Though everything was done as prescribed on my part they tried to invent ways to not pay. I learned not to factor in the rebate when giving a customer quote.
Regardless of how attractive some rebates seem to be I avoid them with a passion. Evidently they do work as they continue to be popular. But this old boy is not playing their game anymore.

Still waiting for mine too.
I'm in the same boat and same unit. It's funny how we spend so fast but get return so slow. They are trying to figure out away not to send it, i wish i could charge them intrest on the return.
