Down to $393.90 on the Catleap from DS.Come on 10am, so I can get home and measure. I think I'll be getting it either way, and get a new stand if I need to, but I'd still like to know it'd be good to go out of the box. smile.gif

No refunds unless you ask for one, and even then i don't see any notes on "price protection" on Ebay nor in the seller's listing.

It can't hurt to ask, i just wouldn't count on it.

not fair? waaaaaaaa. don;t junk this thread with your useless whining over $16. Nobody price matches themselves and don't even embarrass yourself and waste their time by asking., and every component ever gets better and cheaper over time. Yes I made this account to tell you to grow up.

OTOH, thanks for this great thread, just discovered this monitor today and ordered 2! hope it isn't $1 cheaper tomorrow I'll be so :sadface:

I hear you EduardMC, but i wouldn't get too down about it. Your $400 buy price is a tremendous value and was the molten lava hottest monitor deal at that particular moment.

Think about it

- 27" IPS
- No agressive AG coating
- 2560x1440 goodness (1280x720 X 2)
- Ultra-low input lag
- 80~ 100hz refresh rate??? Insane
- decent looking bezel and stand, could have been better probably but it could have looked much much worse.
- $400 ??? A month ago we would have thought it was insane and impossible.

Owner's in this thread can give themselves a collective "pat on the back" to congragulate themselves, all of you would deserve it.

Remember you can still contact the seller, just be super polite about it when you inquire.

I know it was a heck of a deal. I'm glad i bought it and don't know how long this unit will be for sale and for this price. BUT it always upsetting when you buy something and a few hours later you see a lowered price. Can't wait to get mine.

Anyone with an applecinema or Dell30 to compare ips image and how good this compare to it. I still cannot believe that we are getting something has good for such a price.

EDIT: price back up to $399 thumb.gif

Hmm, I'm too lazy to search the thread, but around how much input lag does the catleap have? Quite an interesting monitor we have here.

About ready to pull the trigger, but wanted to know if anyone got the SquareTrade warranty? With the recent drop in price, it makes it more understandable to get it.

Just went back to $399.90 for you whiners. tongue.gif
