P.S Stand indeed is very flimsy but from what i gathered Catleap is even worse.
Thanks for the reply, i have decided to order this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ACHIEVA-Shimian-QH270-LITE-27-LG-S-IPS-LED-2560x1440-QHD-DVI-16-9-6ms-Monitor-/120911803193?pt=Computer_Monitors&hash=item1c26e7b339#ht_11770wt_1163

I've mailed him and he answered this:
"Dear mrsvahn,

We have one year warranty; which means,

1. We do take full responsibility within 30 days for monitor itself defect/default.
Meaning, all shipment will be on us and full refund or new monitor replaced.

2. In other cases; defect/default caused by buyer's misusage, it will be on buyer's responsibility.
Meaning, all shipment will be on buyer for repair.

So far we did not recevied any claims for monitor defect/default, because we do inspect each monitors before we arrange shipment.
Clearly, both of us - Accessorieswhole and buyer, don't want to get defect/default monitor.

Sincerely,

- accessorieswhole"

It makes me feel a bit more relaxed if i would happen to get a bad monitor. smile.gif

And if the stand is bad, it's easier to change on the Shimian right? BEcause on the catleap you have to open the panel or something like that... :S

I think you'll be happy with it , ask him to test it before shipping to avoid trouble , as for the stand it's not that bad , it's flimsy but it does the job so unless you have frequent earthquakes where you live you should be fine tongue.gif

Yeah i hope so too! He tests them to make sure that there are no dead pixels and no more then 2 stuck pixels. smile.gif I just realized that my current monitor has about 10 dead pixels tongue.gif I had'nt noticed them until i did a test and started looking :O

Okay, i was thinking about buying a crossover because of their stand but i think i'll save 30$ and take the shimian smile.gif

Ordered my IPSB from red-cap. Can't say I'm pleased with the shipping however. Entirely within his delivery estimate range but others have posted 2-3 day times where mine is going to take the full 5 days it seems. He shipped DHL so yeah... nuff said. Their stupid system has said mine is "with the delivery carrier" since 8am this morning and as of yet, 7:00pm, it has still not arrived. I'm gonna be effin pissed if it is delayed until tomorrow. Did anyone else's ship DHL?

I think you need to calm down a bit smile.gif It's still very fast, considering it's coming from Korea and shipping is free.

Mine was from Red Cap and was shipped via DHL. Arrived within 3 days since it was dropped off. DHL delivers until 8pm.

Right. I wasn't getting irritated with Red-Cap but rather DHL.

But it turns out I spoke too soon. It arrived about 15m after I posted. It is absolutely immaculate. Not a single dead pixel, no dust, and no bleeding.

Paid for mine on the 16th and it was dispatched on the 18th and in the UK in the 20th. However, crappy UK customs has had it with them till now and I've still not got any "Out for delivery" updates. Guess the UK just sucks for importing things..
