I just bought a BenQ BL3200PT from ebay, which is 2560x1440.
Unfortunately it has a few dead / stuck pixels at least 3. Think they're dead because it's not stuck on a colour. I'm currently verifying by using w/b/r/g/b solid colour pictures that fill in the whole screen.
Now I can get away with a refund, because I actually think the seller was not responsible, they sold me an opened box as new.So I will complain like hell to eBay and Paypal if they don't agree to a refund, which would be illegal under UK distance selling law anyway.
It showed signs of being opened before such as 1 layer of tape with BenQ logo sealing the bottom of box but 2 layers of BenQ tape on the top as well as a clear plastic strip that wasn't even lined up straight. The stand mechanism had a scrape on the inside, indicating someone has previously screwed the stand in as part of installation. I took pictures of everything as I opened box. Their stock info was also wildy inaccurate and they closed the listing after 1 more sale after me saying " no stock".
How many dead/stuck pixels would you personally accept on a monitor with this resolution?
I remember when I bought my Dell 2709W all those years ago, I sent back 3 sets and finall got a perfect one on the 4th try.
