Warm? Viewsonic PF790 19" monitor for 393.26 PM to BestBuy ???

[me101]

Am looking for a good 19" monitor, and I wonder if this is possible. (my proview 19" blew up on me at the weekend!)

At PC Nation, they have the Viewsonic 19" PF790 for $396.75, add shipping of $40.20, comes to $436.95...

Now if i go to BestBuy B&M, they have the monitor at $499+tax ($524.99), can I PriceMatch them to the PC Nation price with the shipping, AND get them to do the 10% off "if I can find it cheaper" deal?

Really nice monitor for <$400 Saving $131.73!!!!!

Thanks...

seems like a nice price for new...

buy.com has this monitor REFURBISHED in clearance for $329.99 + $35 shipping - 30 coupon = approx. $335 shipped...

Don't know about your Best Buy B&amp;M but mine will not pricematch online stores.

While BestBuy won't price match, Staples will -- and they carry the monitor, item #IM1231078 $482.99

Here's an interesting alternative. MonitorOnSalehas a model AT1099DA that is made with the same tube and chassis as the Viewsonic PF790, and made for them at the same Taiwanese factory that makes the PF790, for $319. I haven't seen the &quot;generic&quot; monitor, though I found a few reports that MonitorOnSale is legit and that some of their other monitors have been good.

Here's their description of the AT1099DA:
This 19&quot; Generic monitor feature 100% pure flat screen ( 0.25AG Diamontron Tube. It is the same Diamontron tube had been used in ViewSonic PF790). It features 0.25AG Diamontron Pure flat tube. 18 view. OSD display. Max. 1600x1200@75 and it is under $350. It also come with 3 year parts and labor warranty.
