The first store quoted $1199, but said to wait until the first of April as the rebates will be coming out then. The rebate for the M5 is supposed to be $100, so the price would be $1099. The second store quoted $1599, but was willing to cut the price $100 and give it to us for $1499. He didn't mention the rebate as the first store did.
At that price, I would be pulling out my wallet so fast I'd burn a hole in my back pocket rebate or not. I really, really hope that plays out for you. Be sure and update us. Even 12-1300 would be a good price.
