Interesting question. Since you didn't pay for it you should not be entitled to any money back.

Nope

No. The serial number is tracked. I suppose it might also be fraud of some kind.

Sell it. Give it to a friend. Donate it to a charity.

Huh? You got a free touch after rebate... and you want to return it? How would you go abouts doing that since you need to send in the bar code (not a photocopy) to Apple, therefore opening the package...

So either;
1. your full of it
or, 2. laws are different in the states, cause I know here in Canada, you need to mail the bar code so you don't return the product after..

For some reason I think he wants to do this, but hasn't done it yet. Well sorry for spoiling your dreams of frauding Apple!

:eek:

You can't return it, it could be fraud (considering the circumstances), and it's not the moral thing to do!

Smells like eBay!;)

actually i paid up front for the touch full price and i didnt have to send in the bar code for the rebate. the box is brand new unwrapped, the whole rebate process was online. i guess i will be selling it on ebay didnt think returning it would work.
