Any reason I shouldn't buy this?

Looks to be a free motherboard after rebate from NewEgg. Any reason I shouldn't do this? I can't see one.

Edit: Hmm, I may have found my answer: http://www.bensbargains.net/ktalk/1093909997,15819,.shtml

I guess Soyo is notoriously known for not mailing rebates. Can anyone else testify to this? I've done many rebates through many companies and have always gotten them back (not always as fast as they promise, but back nonetheless).

I've also heard less than stellar things about Soyo boards. This sounds as though it may be too good to be true.

somebody left a comment suggesting the rebate wasn't for the full amount

No, there's two of them posted. One for $35 and one for $40. One requires the real UPC, the other a copy. Don't know what that other guy was talking about.

I see

Keep in mind you might have to pay sales tax on the normal price -- depending on where you live.

Also hope that the company actually pays off on the rebate
