I have a dilemma!

I received two very nice Case knives yesterday. That doesn't sound like a dilemma to you? Well, the dilemma is that there is a $5 rebate on each knife. But you have to cut the original UPC code off the box to send in. Now I don't think I want to destroy the boxes for the $5. I would like to know what everyone else would do.

Would you keep the boxes intact or would you cut the UPC code off to get the $5 per box?

Personally I would keep the box intact. Years later I would be kicking my self for not having it and the $5 would be long forgotten.

That's a hard one. I think I would call Case or wherever they were bought and explain that dilemma.

I tried to call Case today but apparently they are closed on Friday. Will try again next week.

I would keep the boxs I think someday it would make the value of the knives more than $5 I would call Case and talk to them

The box is worth more to me than the money.

I would not cut the box for $5.00.

Take a copy of the box labels and the receipt and write a note explaining the situation...and send it in...see what happens...tell them that you are a case collector...who knows until you try
