Am I insane and a super cheap ass that I have a hard time believing 25" std res monitors really cost $300 bucks and meh ones cost $200? Please someone tell me I'm out of line and I'll go pony up the dough right now... LOL!
I bought a std res 25 inch k7000 monitor for $150. That was 3 years ago. I have seen others listed for sale between $175-$200 in my area a while back. My opinion is how hard are they to find in your area. Also if you really need one right away you will be willing to pay more for one.
