$600.00 for hand delivered service . It is coming from a guy who bought a computer/monitor package, but doesn't want the monitor.

Is this too good of a deal to pass up?

EDIT1 - First impressions:

I got the monitor! Holy crap, this thing is huge.


EDIT2 - Pics of monitor #1:

Landscape view
Pre-desktop rotation
AnandTech in Portrait
Gmail in Portrait

And just to piss you guys off even more, I will take pictures of the two LCD boxes. Also, those Klipsch 5.1 Ultras sitting pretty were $100. Further, I'm getting a new Axim (Wi-Fi + BLuetooth, 128mb, 1GB SD, etc) for $90. I'm selling it on eBay of course.

It's in person, and I'm not going alone =P And I'm meeting in a public space.

But yes, he scanned the receipt showing the computer + monitor.

Ok, here is the new dilema. The same guy I bought this one from is offering another one for $600. Should I buy it too? ... To resell of course.

Pictures will come, I promise. No ATOT Syringer in the Video Forum.

So I decided I am buying the second, and I will be selling it here or on eBay. I really don't need two.

I paid $889 each + $56.12 (shipping), total $2,723.12 for 3 of them
just 4 days ago! :( :| :(

Make sure it's not HOT? and then buy as many as he has.
10, 20, 30...
It's as good as money in the bank!

I may have missed something here. How did it go from someone who "bought it as a package but doesn't want the monitor" to "offering another one?"

I guess he could be buying bundle deals and reselling the parts.

He was a really non-sketchy guy. His wife was in the passenger seat, and his 2-year old daughter in the back waving at us. The monitor was in the Dell box, never opened. He bought 2x 2405FPWs but realized from a friend that they would be too big, and ordered 2x 2005FPWs. That's the story I got. I don't really care if it's true right now.

As for the $100 Klipsch 5.1 Ultras, they were also from Craigslist, from a guy that had never gone to college, but worked for Dell here in Austin, and recieved a job offer from Microsoft for 3x the salary. He would head part of the MS Office Team! He was selling off his items to move to Seattle.
