Shimano Rebates

[JustinHoffman]

Hello All,

 

Read Gerritt's post regarding the great deals to be had at allamericanoutdoors.com. Two that really stood out were Shimano Citica's for $98 and Curado D's for $168. Add in the $30 and $50 off rebates, and they are practically giving them away...

 

My question is this - the Shimano rebate forms that are printable online state only for U.S. residents, and it is a U.S. address you mail it to. I know that we are eligible for the rebates, so do we just send the form to the U.S. and they will honour it, or is there a mailing address here in Canada that they can be sent to?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Good Fishing,

 

Justin

Hi Justin,

 

Just picked up a Citica myself. The rebate form gives the Shimano Canada address:

 

Shimano Canada

427 Pido Rd

Peterborough, ON

K9J 6X7

 

But I wonder if you will have any problem trying to get the rebate from Shimano Canada if you buy the reel from a U.S. dealer, as they ask which store you bought the reel from and want a photocopy of your receipt.

Thanks, Mike. I'll send them a note and see what I can find out. Might still be cheaper to buy from the States, even if I can't get the rebate..

 

Good Fishing,

I asked a shimano rep this last week and he said it had to be bought at a canadian retailler, no internet sales apparantly.
