LG L246WP 24" LCD $278 at CC B&M

Ahh, I went to the CC after work and the same guy I talked to on the phone told me someone came in and bought the last two about an hour before...sorry guys, I tried.
 
Yea my place was like "we've had atleast 10 people ask us about that monitor today" I was like >_<

This was in-store, I checked the shelves first with no luck, then asked a guy to check... he didn't even have to look it up... just knew what I was talking about =(
 
I checked most of northern Illinois--completely sold out or never had stock to begin with. I even checked store numbers that didn't exist, the Marion warehouse and the internet warehouse--all empty. Sorry!

(This applies to central Illinois as well!)

202276
 
When asking CC employees to check if the monitor is in stock you may have to give the model number L246WPBN. I went to two stores and they couldn't find L246WP at either. At the second store one of the guys working knew what I was looking for and he looked it up with the BN model number. Just thought that might help.
 
called the Circuit City store in Vermont and they said they did not have any LG monitors listed. Had him look up the model number as he offered to order it, and he said there aren't any LG monitors listed there either... Vermont is small potatoes, so maybe that would be why I can never get the in-store deals. Heck, the Best Buy in this area just started selling the 8800gt...
 
Ya, the smaller store near me said they have never carried any LG 24" monitors, and the bigger store said they havent had them in stock for a long time. Seems these monitors only got stocked in the bigger stores.
 
Ok, so I'm not really liking my Westinghouse 24" that I got in at from the Best Buy deal and kinda want the Acer since I already have an Acer 22". Anyone interested in trading?
 
I just went there and got the last one in my area for $236. $259 out the door :)
 
None in Orlando.... I swear, I never can get any of these CC and BB deals here... oh well
 
Wow, I felt pretty good when I bought the floor model at Best Buy for $450 about 2 months ago. Until I saw this thread. :p

I might take a look at my local Circuit City. Probably a snowball's chance in hell of them having any (I don't recall seeing them having LGs in stock in the past), but I think I'd get a second one if they had it.
 
quick question... i just read on newegg specs that this monitor does not support HDCP.... is this true? still a great deal but i'm a bit disappointed now cuz i was hoping to watch some blu ray stuff.
 
Cant find in the San Gabriel Valley. Not in Pasadena, Montebello, or West Covina (went there).

They werent even able to find the item with the model number. =(

This monitor is HDCP compliant. The new in box ones come with a sticker that says "Windows Vista Ready", and I've seen other places that it has HDCP. Also, someone earlier in the thread has successfully played Blu Rays on it.

Ahh! Thanks for clarifying that. Stupid lying newegg. My monitor did have a sticker that said windows vista ready, but i didn't know that meant HDCP. I thought it just meant that it works in vista haha.
 
My local store was out but they checked some surrounding stores for me and were able to find one. I bought it at the store near me for pickup at the other store and then went to get it right after. It's now sitting next to my desk, eagerly awaiting unboxing and setup tomorrow. I'm very excited about that. :D

Thank for posting this deal, it really helped me out. Now if I could just find another one..... :cool:

The combination of a few 4-midnight shifts in a row working outside, 3 straight nights out drinking with guys from work, a pancake dinner fundraiser with a house full of sorority girls, not bothering to sleep, a computer that only boots when it wants to, and needing to be up at 6AM to head back to my real job in the morning finally did me in. :(

I know, I am weak. ;)

Yes, my impressions exactly. Once I set it on my desk, I was astounded at how large it looks. Its a very nice panel I have fallen in love with it, I was originally going to sell it for a quick couple hundred dollars profit, but I can't bring myself to take it off my desk.

The stand is GREAT, by far the best LCD stand I have ever come across, which just makes the already great LCD even better. Best $260 I've ever spent in my life.
 
yeah I really cant justify selling it. Even if I don't make it my primary monitor its well worth the money i spent on it.
 
I think I found an opened box for $216.xx but they can't find it. I'm going to call them back again today to see if they found it. The sales guy said the warehouse guy hasn't seen an "LG monitor in store for months."

He did say it would still carry the full manufacture warranty as well as CC's standard return policy.

This is true, it will still carry a warranty from CC for i believe 14 days, then you have a 3 year from LG.
 
These are great monitors. Too bad a spend a few more shinny pennies for mine.
 
I called CC back and was put on hold for 30 minutes. I hung up and called back 15 minutes later. They found their last open box. I drove a little over an hour, ~45 miles away, to go look at it. They didn't have a stand for it! So we took a look at their VESA wall mounts and universal stands but I didn't want to mount it in the wall nor would their universal stands work.

The employee tried to look on LG's website for replacements parts and I called LG. About $85 bucks for the pieces. So it still wasn't took bad of a deal, out the door for $230 plus $85 or so to order the stand.

I thought I wasn't even going to be able to use it until I get the stand but I have an older Dell 18" and its stand works as a temporary solution. I could only mount in two of the bolts but it works for now.

It is gorgeous and such a good deal. You can barely find decent 22" for under $300.

Now its time to start doing more photography work as I have a lot more pixels to view at once!
