$499 for this Samsung 180T at this site, but at other more famous sites like Computers4sure.com, TechDepot, and PCNation.com, it's over $1500!!

As far as the 191T, newegg is selling them for $659 + $0 shipping. Haven't bought monitors, but have had good experiences buying other stuff from them.

I ordered a 191T from NewEgg.com 2 weeks ago. It arrived in about 3-4 days. Liked it so much, ordered another 191T which should be here tomorrow

the manufacturers generally will not allow an lcd out into the marketplace with more than 8 burned out pixels. these may be a mix of different types of defects, either stuck on (white, red, green, or blue) or stuck off and thus black. any more than this and they junk it.
now, as for the retailers, they all have different policies. one retailer may allow you to return an lcd with one bad pixel (very rare). others may require 3 bad pixels, 5 bad pixels, or even 8 bad pixels.
the location and color of the pixel of course may make a big difference. one stuck black pixel along the edge probably wouldn't bother me.
if you have a stuck pixel, it actaully can be fixed! i've never done this, but i've read about it. you can gently massage the area around the pixel, in small circles, and sometimes it will force liquid into the area and the pixel will come alive.

It may not be the best of them all, but what do you think about the "Gateway 18.1-Inch Flat Panel Monitor - Grade B"
