I just bought a 19" Samsung LCD monitor for $309 - GoFuckYourself.com

badmunchkin · 11-27-2004, 08:02 PM

So COMPUSA has this monitor on special for $379.
http://www.compusa.com/products/prod...814&pfp=SEARCH
But - they quickly sold out. There's none in stock anywhere it seems.

So, I printed out their ad, and went to Office Depot. Their price was $549 before a $70 rebate.

They price matched COMPUSA by giving me a gift certificate for $170. Then, when I checked out, they gave me a $70 mail-in rebate form too. That brought the price down to $309 on a kick-ass 19" LCD.

Just a heads up if you're looking for a deal...

Wow...that is a great deal

Huh?

I bought that for $900 18 months ago.

Nickless · 11-27-2004, 08:07 PM

hmm what if you edit the price before printing the ad to ask for a price match?

Vitasoy · 11-27-2004, 08:15 PM

Americans get all the good deals.

Is this good enough for playing games like Halo or Half Life?

Sosa · 11-27-2004, 09:10 PM

nice deal

badmunchkin · 11-27-2004, 09:28 PM

BTW: I don't think the manager meant to also give me the rebate - it was supposed to be the $170 gift certificate and let's call it a day, but even at $379 it's still a helluva deal...

BBH - Vincent · 11-27-2004, 09:47 PM

Good deal!

Phil21 · 11-27-2004, 09:50 PM

Unfortunately appears there is no DVI?

Samsung is great, I'm on a 191t right now that I wouldn't trade for the world. But w/o DVI I'd go nuts, you can definitely tell the difference (this has both DVI and analog VGA inputs)

No, 25ms sucks for playing games. There are 12ms monitors out, but that was only for 17 inch ones last time i checked.... 12 ms still isn't the same as crt, but it's bearable at least

tony286 · 11-27-2004, 10:50 PM

Thats a sweet deal

lil2rich4u2 · 11-27-2004, 10:58 PM

The picture's extremely crisp - Samsung makes some of the best monitors and the 912n gets great reviews
