Sounds like a pattern here.

No, I just bought the printer and it's only $20, but it's what tipped me 
over to making the decision to buy a new printer, and get it delivered for 
free with no sales tax to my door in 4 days.

Sounds like Canon USA sent a secret memo to their people telling them that 
the CEO needs some pure gold faucets on his wife's Lear jet instead of the 
pewter ones and to screw up and deny, deny deny rebates.
