yes, the ebay seller had a really good rating and was selling brand new unopened boxes in a bulk auction. I wasn't worried. It came with full manuf. warrenty.
Well, there's a slight problem buying that monitor from eBay.
You can't do a "transfer of ownership" on monitors (only systems). So if you need to get warranty serviced, you'll need to do it under the original purchasers information.
I may be wrong, but I was thinking of bidding on one before - but after quite a bit of researching, that's the conclusion I came to.
You can call dell warranty dept and verify. The rep I spoke to before confirmed it with me.
