The fact that a retailer can be R150 cheaper than a wholesaler is testament to their buying power. Decide what hardware you want, Keep your eyes peeled for a bargain, and you are almost assured to get one at a big retailer.
As for the double-post... sorry. My tablet won't let me edit.
I doubt buying power has anything to do with the specials from Incredible Connection. Only when they have specials are they worth it. The rest of the time they make up for any loss with the mark-up on the rest of their prices.
In all honestly I have seen mice going for twice the price of say Matrix, and speaker systems going for thrice the price. And these are Microsoft and Logitech brands, not no name brands.
Samsung are good monitors. Just make sure what warranty the special is given.
They like to only give 1 year warranty, and then customers cry when it packs up after the year.
You forget that Walmart now owns all the big retail stores. Soon all the PC shops will close down and be out of business.Quote:

Thanks for all the feedback guys.
Reason I want a glossy screen is because the colours are more vivid. Its for gaming in my room so reflection wont be too much of a problem.
Thanks for the reccomendations Glordit.
If anyone comes across any other glossy screen deals please let me know. Thanks again
I recently bought this screen, and I am SUPER happy with it.:
Samsung LS24B370HS
It's a 24" LED with HDMI and DVI. It's awesome!
I'd also say check out Incredible Connection. I saw the Samsung S27A950D on special for R5500 recently - I'd only seen that monitor for R6k and more before.
Depends on what you need more vivid colours for. Have you looked at IPS screens.
As an example check out IPS234V-PN. I've seen them at Matrix Warehouse and at Esquire for approx. R1 900.

just putting it out there :)
My opinion: Good brand monitors are Samsung, Acer, Viewsonic and HP. Don't get any monitor with lower resolution than 1920x1080.
