Man there is someone on e-bay sellin Dell 2005 FPWs for $374.00 U.S. Brand new not referbs. They were sellin at $359.00 up until the 24th. Damn that's cheap.

And their feedback is 100%

$79.00 for shipping? That's a joke. Shouldn't cost more than $20.00.

It's actually very common, and most LCD's on eBay go for 50-70 if not more.

Another thing people do is they will put a buy it now much cheaper, and then hike the shipping.

The way eBay works, is they take a final value fee from the sale price. The shipping doesn't come into play. I have seen people list the monitors for a buy it now of 9.99 with $400 shipping to save on fees. Ebay generally kills those auctions quick, but people still try.

In this case however, I think it's just the petch tryin to make a dime.

359 + 79 = 438.

I paid 420 for my second one, direct from Dell. Free shipping.

 

[kcnychief]

Direct from Dell is best way to go. Transferring service tags/serial numbers for warranty = sucks

 

[gonaads]

Damn, missed the shipping thing. Yeah when deals are that cheap on e-bay the shipping is bullshiit.
