Title: Rolled the dice and bought a used monitor from ebay.
Post by: Torc on September 18, 2006, 04:00:24 pm

I just paid 100 bucks for a Prinston AR2.7AV monitor on Ebay (250 with shipping) i hope it works lol

I was getting ready to fork over 4 or 5 hundred bucks for one of those new displays and I saw this. I figure I'll roll the dice a bit and hope for the best. Wish me luck! I'll make sure to post some pictures and an update when I get it set up.

Here is a link to the item on ebay

Provided its not too banged up it seems like it may be decent.
I'd love to hear some feedback on it Thanks :)

Hope it works out for you.  I too am looking for a good monitor, although I would be worried that ActLabs VGA guns may not work with it.

I can't believe how good it is, it exceeded my wildest expectations. :)
