Title: tigerdirect.com paypal funds
Post by: SithMaster on October 31, 2006, 12:53:46 pm: i cannot order something without a credit card from tiger does anyone know if its possible to use paypal funds? they have a paypal option but it requires a credit card which makes no sense becuase they already have a credit card option.

todays the last day on a rebate item and i would be able to mail in an order but then i wouldnt be able to use the rebate right? or do they base purchase based on when it is postmarked?

It's a daily routine for them.

Except for that one.

I know somebody that TigerDirect caused much pain for. I make sure to spread the anti-TigerDirect word whenever possible.

I think they make sure that anyone close enough to drive over and kick someone's ass gets taken care of properly.

Post by: ErikRuud on November 06, 2006, 12:01:55 pm: I purchase from TigerDirect all the time.

At least 2/3 of what I buy is covered by a rebate and I have never had a problem with any rebates.
