Dead pixels

[lee63]

Hey, does anyone know where you can get an LCD checked for dead pixels and backlighting problems for an extra charge ?

Thanx in advance

Wait...what!? You mean, you want some 3rd party to check the displays you are going to buy from some other party, before you even purchase the display? Or, do you want someone to check for backlight bleeding/dead pixels after you purchase a display?

Either way, its a pretty silly thought. Its easy to check for both.

Before, like this http://cgi.ebay.com/Dell-2405FPW-24...ryZ86706QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem but I dont trust ebay. Sorry I should have explained a little better.

Well, I may be cynical, but I don't trust this. IMO, this deal is too good to be true. I've never owned the 2405FPW, but I've read enough about them to know there's tons of backlight bleeding issues (not too sure about the dead pixels). For this place to be selling "perfect" 2405FPW's for less than MSRP makes me think twice about it.

I'm a firm believer of, if a deal is too good to be true, than it probably is. And, you pay for what you get.

Yeah your right, thanx for the input.

Just look at how the "master technican" checks the dead pixels. Do you guys check those on a normal desktop image? We usually use full screen white, black, red, green and blue to do that.
