Kamshaft Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I'm asking for a collector friend. Were these Star Wars rebate offers only done in Canada, or were they done in other parts of the world? Thanks in advance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhd Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Thanks for sharing this. I have never seen this piece before. Is the English version on the other side of the form? The dates of the rebate are intriguing. According to Random Terrain's list, the game was released in July 1982; I clearly remember playing it at a friend's house later that year (possibly in October). I wonder if sales were flagging by April 1983, hence the rather substantial rebate (worth about $12 today). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, here's a rebate coupon from the U.S. with several games, and Empire is one of them. I hope this answers your question.

Shawn Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I'd love to know if there was a Star Wars themed cheque from Parker Bros. that came in the mail. I'd love to have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
