This appears to be the matching model on princeton's website:

And here's a related review that I found:

I love my envision monitor. that was such a great deal. looking for another and i checked out the princton monitor. Newegg has it for $449 - $100 MIR making it cheaper than Costco and available now with free shipping. I actually need a 17 inch but its nice to look

 

[oogabooga]

probally going to go for the fox dvd's and an infusion basketbal, but man, costco will be SO crazy packed, w00t for executive membership hours i guess.

dvd's might be promising too.

Will these require a coupon or will it be an automatic in-store thing? I ask because their coupons usually get sent out months in advance and I have as yet not received any such coupon.

Don't bother with Costco if you want poker chips, eBay is flooded with sets for much less than retail stores are selling them. (a 500 chip set can be had for around $55 dollars shipped, I got a 300 for 40 shipped)

Costco's 500 piece set w/ case is $60 + 5% MD tax. No wait + lifetime warranty.
