Title: Happ 19" for $159
Post by: daeven on March 29, 2004, 10:40:44 pm
I just picked up a new 19" CGA Vision Pro monitor from Happ - I work 5 miles away   :).  They are temporarily selling them for $159, which is cheaper that the refurbished WG K7200.  I quickly hooked it up to an ArcadeVGA and seemed to get a decent image.

Does anyone have any experience with this monitor?  How does it compare to the K7200?

Only $159? You got a real bargain for a 19" brand new monitor plus you didn't have to pay shipping. 8)

I saw this offer also on their website.

Unfortunately i'm in the UK - when  called their UK office they advised that would only sell for 168 pounds + VAT at 17.5% ( 197 pounds total)

This is equivalent of 361.151 US dollars at the current exchange rate.

They suggested that maybe I could order direct from US online and pay carriage and import duties. I am not sure if that is feasible. Not sure how to calcualted the import duty rate for a monitor.

Anybody tried importing a arcade monitor from US to UK - how much is typical carriage and duty?


cheers

I just picked up 2 25" refurbished WG k7400s for $225 each.  I thought that was a steal.  Looks like it is sold out now though.
