This is hard to read and reply to...
This is a bit of a strawman argument. My statement was meant to chain into the next paragraph, which is pointing out the consequences of something somehow going wrong while asserting the self-evident fact due to circumstances something might, not "I'm guaranteed that nothing will go wrong with electronics if I buy new." With new monitors you have a manufacturer's protection, and even with used monitors on Ebay if that's not enough (sometimes it transfers between owners anyway), you can get a Squaretrade warranty. None of those options are available. Just your 6 months, informal, and after that if something does happen you're probably paying the full price of the monitor depending on your location.
On Ebay I can pretty much cheaply add on Squaretrade and it's guaranteed to work for at least 2 years.
That's kind of hard to. Do you mean heat or something? Also it wasn't ever really about the condition coming out...
It's not about receiving what you pay for. It's keeping what I paid for.
My reply: The world may end tomorrow, the pigs may fly as well, the plasma TVs may last forever.... You don't make ANY SENSE! There are NO guarantees that ANY electronics will not fail. They will treat you the way to treat them, and if guidelines and recommended procedures are followed, the probability of failure will be dramatically reduced. I personally own 12 CRTs that I took out of the boxes: eight (8) GDM-FW900s, three (3) Artisans GDM-C520K (I had more but sold them), and one (1) GDM-F520. To this date, NONE of them have failed me, and they still as bright and as sharp as the day they were removed out of the boxes.

My reply: I personally know the condition of EVERY MONITOR THAT COMES OUT OF MY LAB AND IS SHIPPED TO MY CLIENTS!!! And I ONLY SELL UNITS THAT HAVE LESS THAN 3,000 OF USE, IF THAT! For estimating longevity of the CRT and functionality, please look at my past postings...

My reply: You are entitled to your own opinion, and I respect that. Again, you will get what you pay for... Whether you want to play semantics or really understand what this true sentence really states and means... Oh well... You are entitled to you own opinion, and I respect that...
