Wrong. Do you ever read fine print on rebates? For example, from my Netgrear rebate: "Offer limited to end-users only. Dealers, distributors, and other resellers are not eligible for this offer." "Warning: Fraudulent submission could result in federal prosecution under mail fraud statutes (Title 18, USC Sections 1341 & 1342)." If you are reseller, when submitting this rebate you are commiting fraud. Most of the time they can't find out, but that does not mean it is not illegal. Now, if the rebate form does not mention anything about reselling or being to end users only, it might be ok. For most ebay sellers the rebate technicalities are ussually not a concern.
