Last I checked, I can't mail anything to eWiz Is Your Best Friend.

I don't like that the domain was only purchased for one year.. but that price looks good!

To me, if a bizness doesn't put the correct info down for where they're located, contacts, etc . . . then I wouldn't have anything to do with them. Are they trying to hide something? You don't know, and I sure wouldn't want to find out.

Have to agree with EvilRick. Stay away from online resellers that can't provide a physical address in their contact info, what are they trying to hide? However, I have heard Ewiz is the old Knowledgemicro, which is bad news and I would stay away

Both NewEgg & LegendMicro have ~ $250 Samsung Syncmaster LCD's. I have two and I'm very happy with them. A friend also has one and is very happy with it. 3 year warranty with Samsung, if you register on their site quickly, they give you an extra 3 months!

Legend Micro Samsung 150S Silver/Black LCD $254
