Purchasing of a B grade monitor

[Babean]

Hey,

I found myself an amazing deal on the OC site for a monitor that I was going to pay £270 for but saw one on the OC website for a decent £220. Upon opening the box I have found that it has a big crack in the top of the screen, I was hoping that it was just a protective film was what caused the odd appearance of the monitor out of the box but to my sadness it's a big crack in what looks like a really odd place.

Did i get unlucky here? because I honestly was not expecting this. I also just realised right now that I could have paid £6 for a brand new one.....

Contact ocuk and organise a return, they'll refund the cost of postage too if the device is actually faulty.

I do want this monitor though, I honestly can't see one better for the money and what you get out of it unless anyone else could recommend one?

B-Grade can be a little bit risky in that you might get a lemon, but you can nab the odd bargain and at worst you can just send the item back. If you ever buy B-Grade again here's a tip, give the store a ring and ask if they can do a better price! They regularly accept offers for that stuff, I've bought a few bits and bobs that way and shaved a fair amount off the cost by getting in touch.

I'm not massively clued up on monitors, but someone else might be able to chime in and suggest something. That looks like a good deal for a little over £200 though, I can see the appeal.

I've bought lots of items including monitors and they usually only have very minor cosmetic issues or no box, cables etc.

That is plain broken so has happened in shipping but at least with B Grade you have a 90 day warranty.
