Would you order a flat panel from Newegg?

What's up with the policy that you can only return if you have 8 or more dead pixels? Where is a good place to order a flat panel, that has a good return policy? And how do you check for dead pixels?

Bought mine from Dell, and I'm with isekii, that's the only place I'd buy from again.

There are utilities which will help you find dead pixels... do a google search for find dead pixels.

I was thinking of getting another LCD and I noticed that BCD2000 has a "0 bad pixel policy for the first 30 days". And the company seems to be highly rated on Resellerratings with over 700 reviews. What do you all think? I ordered my Samsung 240T from TechOnWeb quite a few months back and it came with 0 dead pixels, so I haven't had the "pleasure" of dealing with return policies yet, fortuntaely--I'll take that as an exception and not the norm though, based on what i've been hearing
