Hi Doug,
Every unit shipped to a dealer through the month of August included the reb... ahem, reward form. I did that in an effort to avoid your very situation. So, I assume you purchased directly from me (web or phone) rather than from a dealer. Since the pricing at dealers is generally less than list price, I'm sure you had other reasons for your choice. For example, Chad's Toolbox price on the Jr. Basic is already 10% less than list.
When people ask, I pretty much tell them that my price on the case is outrageous (my cost is about $26). That's why I offer a version of the Jr. without the case (Jr. Basic). If you're willing to invest some time and effort, you can have as nice or even a better case for considerably less.
Thanks, Ed
