Best price / source for new monitors?

???

What? No one has a good source for new monitors?

I was thinking about going LCD, but the reviews are not good so I'm sticking with CRTs. I just want some sources other than ebay.

Anyone on KLOV specialize in selling monitors?
 
Yes LCD's suck and are horribly over priced
Buy a TV and order a Wei-ya chassis if you can't find someone locally. Use the search engine plenty of info on them.
Under $100 and you have a no burn monitor. http://alvaamusements.com
BTW you have several KLOV members in your state if you take time to look. PM them.

Arcadeshop sells new monitors. In fact, we got a NIB Vision Pro from them a couple weeks ago....
 
8liners.com offers new CGA 19" monitors for $110+ shipping... i know several members have bought from there and have done reports back which i think were mixed on the experience but the monitors were deemed acceptable to good.

you can probably do a search and find the results.
 
Chris25810 monitors are better than new! They lasted about 20 years when he starts repairing them, they will be good for another 20 years. NEW monitors are crap that have short life span (compared to old monitors).

IMO aka 2 cents worth,

brand / info?

There's not a lot of info on the monitors listed on the site. What is the monitor brand and how much did it cost to ship? thanks
 
8liners uses exactly what I recommended. TV tubes and Wei-Ya chassis. Brand - doesn't apply here. Cheaper to make your own. Shipping runs ~$50.00 for the monitor from 8liners.

Yeah, it's cheaper to make your own, but I decided a long time ago that the one thing I wasn't going to do was monitor repair. Sometimes it's better to spend some money and just be happy! thanks

Then spend the money and pick up a monitor or two from Chris25810. He does excellent work and has helped me out of a few problem situations I have found myself in.
 
Chris is the guy who responded to your post that he has plenty of monitors, but none of them are cheap by KLOV standards. He parts out games and does a lot of monitor work. He is in Maplewood, so he is right in your backyard.

I couldn't have said that any better.
 
PM Chris25810 on KLOV or search on ebay as most of the monitors in your area on ebay are his.
 
thanks

I took a look at what's online.

I was hoping for something with a new tube. The monitors I have now are in about the same condition as the ones he's selling. I'll keep looking.
