So I found this little thing on ebay. It was listed for $400.00. It had the little “make an offer” option so I threw out a DISGUSTING lowball. Me personally? I would have been offended by a 25% offer but an e-waste company that wants this thing gone? They said screw it! I paid $100!!!!!
Of course for $100 I was very concerned that the seller would pack it poorly and it would arrive absolutely destroyed but to my surprise it was perfect. They could have gone with the double box method but 10,000 layers of bubble wrap is a solid choice LOL.
Overall? A scratch on the screen and something goofy is happening with the reds…. (She's got a slight flicker on anything with red) but the rest of the monitor is dang near perfect! I'm going to attempt to reflow some solder first and if that doesnt solve anything ill obviously move to a recap but the issue is NOT BAD. It's very minor and very usable.
She's small, she's humble, she takes RGB and does what she is told. I love this little thing. Maybe a travel monitor? Idk. She just looks awesome on the shelf and deserved to be a part of my collection but i dont see myself gaming on her very much!
