Yes, I had him mark it as a gift with a value of $100.

Sorry, one more question, is there a threshold where you don't get hit for a customs charge? If he is gonna send it listed at $100, may as well send it valued at $300...

YES
$80-$99

yes. I put address and phone number for safe measure.

from what I read on the DHL website, they cover the customs fees for the first issue anyway, so you should be good. Also, they seem to put the invoice charge themselves so it should clear customs imo.

also someone linked the Korean US Free Trade Agreement which reduces the customs charges by 95% so it shouldn't be much of an issue if ever.

the 100 is the threshold for gifts according to google. you can receive any number of gifts per day as long as its under $100 for the day.

Awesome, thanks fellas.

wth... I missed DHL's delivery by 30 mins. wish I could've left work early. oh well. 1 more day to go for me. I signed the form so they should leave it on my doorstep tomorrow

Hello to all in search for some info about those ips models ,I saw this thread and woow 400+ pages !
I try to be brief .. Im trying to upgrade from my old LCD monitor.. my plan is to use one of this ips for digital work (photoshop and etc) and some gaming .. I have a few doubts/questions ,some Im sure they where already answered so my apologize ,..

1 as far I know there s not a lot of differences between models (speaking about performance) ,the differences are just esthetic right?
is there something that I missed ? or a specific model that I should avoid ?

2 at this moment Im also building a new pc.. and Im about tu by a new graphic card .. Im between amd 7970 and gtx 680 .. is there any model between this more suitable to this kind of IPS monitors or they are just fine ? (I read somewhere that mad 7970 are more better ..)

3 in gaming: ( its not a biig deal for me but I like to play time to time is there a BIG difference compared to another tn model more faster? I mean ,.. technically there are .. but in real life gaming.. is a huge difference ? or more like .. meeh

also.. I have an Xbox 360 .. my plan is to connect it to this monitor ( which is the one IM planning to buy ) : ¨¨New ACHIEVA Shimian QH270-IPSMS HDMI DVI-D VGA 27 ¨¨ vga--> vga port and the audio to my speakers.. is this ok or theres another way ?

all this fuzz is because I want to be sure,..and also at least for a year this would be my monitor for almost everything .. so once again I know that some questions are very basic .. but I want to double check to be sure.

thanks
Vlad

Just got mine from Dream-Seller. Ordered on Wed, shipped Friday night, got it today in Romania. Not gonna post pics because my camera blows but the monitor is PERFECT (no stuck/dead pixels, etc).

This is what I had in the package from Dream-Seller

Did you buy ZERO Dead Pixel model ?

Nope, bought the 297.5 $ (cheapest) version with 15$ shipping. Had him declare it as a 100$ gift and I only had to pay another 15$ as taxes.

I'll check tonight for light bleeding and will update this post.
