Just remember to always get names and hopefully their extensions if you can...That way you have something to fight back with if they make a big fuss about it...

so, as long as the coupoons can somehow work, then i can continue using up to 5 coupons, say for a 19" trinitron sony monitor?

I was thinking of something along these lines:


Pricematching first
(lowest pricewatch price is 459, and I wanted the regular normal shipping at 32.92 instead of the painfully high shipping of 51 for the pricewatch promo. If it works, then the price would be 493.92)
Use about 3(4 if possible) coupons in order to subtract a decent amount
(2 25 off and a 30 off for a total of 80 off which brings it to 413.92)
(If I could use 4 coupons then it'd be 3 25/75 and the 30/150 to bring to 388.92)
and maybe a free attache case?

Would this work?

I really want to get a good price on a sony monitor. sorry if this is realy off topic:eek: sorry if this sounds stupid:( thank you for the post and has anyone else succeeded? thank you

I don't know much about monitors but I have a Pixie 15" model 555 monitor for around 1.5 years now. I don't know if it's my video card or what but the picture is dull now or I just noticed it now. I cranked up the brightness and the contrast to the max and it still seems a bit dark and dull.

Let me know how this monitor works out. What's the resolutions at what rates? Can you go 1024x768 at 85hz on it? How's the brightness and contrast? When you put the brightness to the max is it too bright?(if so good I guess)

I have $200 and under ready for a monitor. Big one. At least 17". This 19" Pixie seems good at the price.

I have this monitor, got it on the last round of offers a month ago.

I really like it. I have had zero problems. It's nice and bright, excellent colors and is very sharp. Controls are simple.

No complaints at all about this one.
