HOT! 21" refurb monitors, Sony, Dell, NEC starting at $189 + shipping

[progex]

Good to hear from your experience with Merkortech.

After signing up, where do you receive the discounts?

 

[EDiT]

Anyone have experience with any listed right now? I'm tempted by the Compaq p110 for $200, but don't know much about it. Are there any pressing reasons not to get it? If it's Trinitron, it'll be pretty flat, right? I'm just worried what might be wrong since $200 seems pretty cheap to me for a Trinitron.

Thanks.

i think if i'm going to order one of these 21" monitors, i think i'll get it from teamexcess, maybe an IBM P202 which is $215, but theres a 5% and a 15% student discount, so that should be about $40 off, and i'll personally go down there and pick it up so i should have a nice 21" for about $200.

A friend of mine ordered a 21" Dell Trinitron about 2 weeks ago. He called them before ordering and they said the monitor was a "Grade A" lease return. Grade A must mean good, because the one he got is in excellent shape. Hard to tell it was used at all. Overall, he is happy with the price and the experience.

The discounts only show up on certain models....The discounted price will be highlighted in red....You have to "login" to see the special prices....usually only a handful of models are discounted..

Thx!
Got myself a 19 in Dell P991...
Excellent price!
Edit: Paid like $230.00 w shippment to Michigan... but I will be able to sell my current one - a 17 in Apple Studio Display for at least $100.00, maybe even more.... And $130.00 for a 19 in monitor is not bad...

sounds good......ill jump on it later if any are still available

Hey,

So I really need a consensus opinion on which of these refurb 21"s to buy....

NEC E1100+
IBM p202
Viewsonic P810
Other (some other 21" refurb I am missing?)

Please let me know your thoughts....

Thanks

I just got my IMB P202 today. It was a little dirty, but seems to work well. Text is a bit fuzzy at 1600x1200, but I suspect that's the GF4, nvidia has always sucked at 2d.

Great buy at $215, took a while to ship out though, probably 2 weeks total from oder date.

"Not sure, but I believe Ubid.com has some better deals."

I'd sooner deal with EMS exclusively before I'd ever waste another second of my life with Ubid.

Yes, that's how bad my experiences were.

 

[joe678]

looks like a good deal...

 

[DanTMWTMP]

ahah nice nice....

well, teamexcess.com had a very similar deal not too long ago...roommate picked a 21 inch trinitron up from them for 190-something...

i think teamexcess.com's hot deal was on here b4...not sure...forgot...ohwells...

 

[SinMen]

Good find, tempting.

 

[TheSpankster22]

so any votes on which one to buy?

 

[Lanyap]

I've been eyeing that Compaq P110 for $195 (after signup). The IBM P202 looks like a good deal also.

 

[TheSpankster22]

What about the NEC E1100+? Would you get that over the IBM P202?

Thanks,

Spanky

No, the NEC E1100 is a shadow mask curved tube with .28 dot pitch. The IBM P202, Compaq P110 and the others have Sony Trinitron tubes that are either "perfect" flat or "V." (virtually?) flat with a .25 dot pitch which is a better deal. Only thing is, these are used monitors so YMMV on the picture quality.

 

[TruthSeeker]

I have a Sony G500 that I bought from UBID about 6 months ago and I think Sony moniters are the flattest and best for graphics because of the tube they use. But for text my Conerstone 21 incher that has a shadow mask tube is better.

 

[rlc]

for all you guys who ordered a big monitor from them, can you post the result? how's the quality of these refurb monitor? are they clean...etc?

thanks guys

 

[koolio]

They're all refurbished???

I like Dell P1110. That's perfectly flat.

 

[Punisher007]

The price is right

 

[TheSpankster22]

i am tempted between the Viewsonic P810 and IBM P202.....the Dell is more than I want to spend

 

[dryKill]

I've got no complaints about the NEC E1100 I purchased. Clean, and free of any scratches - packaging was great also. If I was to order again right now, I'd prolly get that Compaq P110 (which of course they didn't have when I bought the NEC).

These deals look hot. However, does anyone know anything about the company? I can't find any sort of reseller reviews on them and am wary to purchase anything without third party assessment. The fact that everyone in this thread so far that claims to have direct experience with the company or is overly enthusiastic are all Junior Members registering in August doesn?t help.

(No offense to the above referenced users. The whole Cyberwings fiasco has made me a little cynical!)

Yea this looks like an amazing deal, falls under the too good to be true, so im more than a little hesitant...
