But you can for $350 or so, which is still more than $100 cheaper.

I would rather spend the extra money on getting Square Trade 3 years warranty (total would still be much less than what AW wants).

It's the insurance. If you're OCD about those stuck pixels I'd rather NOT play the lottery.

Edit: Some people prefer the look of the crossover and the superior build quality.

Square Trade is not available outside of the US and Canada.

People live outside of these countries (shocking, I know) - the peace of mind and paid return shipping is worth it to me.

For the quality and looks. It's just SO much better on the CrossOvers. I would pay the premium all day. I absolutely love that it's mainly metal too; I have a thing for metal electronics... just scream quality to me.

$100 is well worth the extra build quality & sleek looks of the Crossover IMO. Also, since monitor's tend to have a longer life-span than most PC components, another $100 over the 3-4 years is nothing.

I would like to ask the same question. I see the crossover at $ 359/369 from bigclothcraft and from Red-cap. More so that they are tested, that is they test the monitor before shipping. Is there any feedback good or bad on these seller for everyone to use only one seller for a good $ 100/150 more.

For me I would like some feedback on Red-cap because he seems to be the only one to ship to my country.

Yo danyyyel-

Why don't you email or pm the folks like Accessorieswhole to see if they ship to your country. I paid the difference between $360 and $378 to go with Accessorieswhole - and I am glad that I did. I personally wouldn't fork out over $100+ for one of Accessorieswhole's so called Pixel Perfect monitors-eh!!

I'll be getting one because I prefer the looks and I'm a stickler for stuck or dead pixels (they'd drive me insane) so AW's pixel perfect and return shipping policy is great for me. I'm not so much buying the Korean monitors because they are cheap but because they have minimal input lag due to their lack of a scaler. If Dell or HP decided to bail their scaler and stupid amount of inputs and make a model without obscene input lag I'd pay their prices for it but they don't so the $490 Crossover LED-P it is.
