6 arcade monitors for .99 cents?? Anyone near San Antonio TX?
Donger:
Be careful with those things, they look like the monitors you find in the backs of car seats....they are in the 'car seat' section. That's pretty small.
The fact that he doesn't give a straight answer to a simple question should raise a red flag.

They have them up in a weird category which is why I think they aren't getting bid on.

I just looked at the category:
Car Video & Navigation > Monitors Only > Headrest > 4 inches and larger
Again, I think this indicates that we're looking at small monitors here.

People, first rule of Ebay is don't make assumptions on an Ebay listing. If you don't know what it is, and the seller is avoiding important information like SIZE, manufacturer, age, etc, etc, then you're taking a risk.
If "they were bought for a particular project", then ---gosh-darn---, he should know what the project was and hence, whether these are COLOR or B&W or VECTOR, and what size and make.
Don't takes risks on sellers who avoid giving specific info. They usually do so on purpose.
NOW, if these turn out to be in COLOR and are small (like 13" or smaller), I want one too! But I live in Canada and will have to have it shipped. I don't want to pay more than $50 for one of these not counting shipping (depending on what they are though).

While I agree they are probably small monitors, most monitors on the back of car seats are LCD.

I get the impression from our correspondence that he is selling these things on behalf of his employer so it's very possible he not only doesn't know anything about these monitors... He might know anything about monitors in general - including how to measure the size. I don't know... But he expects them to be B&W...
