Buddy Bottle?

Do not trust you will get the rebate from Crosman. I submitted one on this bottle in Dec 2017. The thread triggered me to check on it. Called the 1-800-number and Molly said he had been denied because I did not include the UPC code. Which is BS. I had read before submitting that Crosman had that pattern, so I made certain I cut the UPC from the packaging the bottle was contained in and not the outer shipping that came from MidwayUSA. Miss Molly said she would have to have the original submital recalled to verify and that it would be Wednesday this week before she had those in had and be able to verify and resubmit the rebate. Hmm sounds like a pattern to keep from paying rebate claims. Have heard this from others. Buyer beware on the Croman Rebate program.
