Last I heard, misrepresentation of a material fact is grounds for rescission
of a contract, without having to establish intent to defraud; so, if the
dealer said you're lens purchase entitles you to the rebate, you can argue
you're entitled to rescind, return the lens, and get your $$ back.
Depending on the integrity of your dealer, you may have to sue to do so,
which probably isn't worth the $150, in either monetary terms or emotional
terms.
