Samsung or Viewsonic 15" Black LCD

[consumertalks]

I've been enlisted to find a good price on a black 15" LCD. Here's what I'm looking for:

Samsung Syncmaster 151S Black
-or-
Viewsonic VG150B

I used to have a bunch of links on my old desktop, but didn't transfer them to this one. I've tried cnet and epinions, but it looks like prices were lower 3 months ago! I'd like to keep it around $250 if possible.. I know the Samsung was going for $200-$230 on eBay, but my friend wants a guaranteed warranty from a store.

I don't know if DELL small business has any coupon codes stackable with their current sale.. ??

Please help!!!

You're right about the prices going up. I bought a 152T at NewEgg for $279 two months ago and now it's up to $325. That sucks because I wanted to get another one.



Check pricegrabber.com for the 151S. I saw one for around $260.

I tried pricegrabber, thanks. Their lowest total price after shipping is $271.19 for the black 151S. That's from BCD2000, which appears to have a good rating, but I've never heard of them.

I ended up getting a silver Samsung on eBay today, for $50 less than pricegrabber's lowest price. He's happy. I don't understand why the prices are going up. Usually a bad economy drives prices down.. unless it's been bad for so long they have to make more money on each sold unit! Poo for us.
