Default Fixing a crack
I just bought my 226BW monitor and it seems to have a small crack on the screen. Is there anyway I can fix it without RMA?

I've read of way to such as lightly sanding down the area to diminish the effect... but NO. I would RMA right away!

I thought it was a little crust at first, so a used my finger nail to try and get it off. That caused the verticle line in the pic. Also, I bought it used, will Samsung still let me RMA?

I would take this up to the person who sold to you actually. Probably the reason they sold it to you, if you didn't know first hand. Though if that isn't possible then RMA is the answer. I would fill out well that it is cracked, you don't want to lie about it then arriving their repairing facilities with something other than stated.
