Sony/dell Trinitron19" Crt Incredibly Cheap Priced
« on: February 10, 2004, 03:36:00 AM »
hey all, Im in the market for a monitor and i couldn't help but notice that tigerdirect.com as well as other online shops are selling Dell Trinitron 19" CRT Monitors for around $140!?!?  These monitors have a 0.24-0.25 dot pitch and a max resolution of 1600x1200 @ 87Hz.  Trinitron technology and all (therefore flat screen/aperture grill/bla bla bla).  But is there a reason for them being priced so cheap... something i'm not picking up here?  I mean i know CRTs are going out and LCDs are comin in but still... i remember when these monitors retailed for $500.  Anyone?

My job bought a bunch of 17 inch crt monitors for under 100 a pop so I dont see a problem with a 19 inch for 140. Nobody really wants these type of monitors anymore. So they are selling for dirt cheap now.
