Currently OOS & with the $20 off coupon this deal would've made up for the monitor I missed on BF.

If you don't mind a 17-inch you could go with this Acer. 17-inch Acer monitor It is on sale for $169 and it automatically gave me an additional 20% (said it was coupon code 9874 - it just showed up there). Then use code 99523 for an additional $20. I got this one last night for $131 and some change.

I just purchased a 19'' Westinghouse LCD monitor from my local BestBuy for $159, it was advertised in my Sunday sales flyer. They had several in stock, it works fine, and is one of the lowest prices w/o any rebates I have seen.

AMIE--

 

How were you able to use both codes? When I put the 17' in my cart, it gave an instant $20 off but when I put the other code for the $20 off it said that coupon wasn't yet applied and to make sure I was spending over $150.00. I submitted the order, expecting the other $20 off but it didn't take it off. I even called customer service and said that I can't use both codes. DARN...wouldn't have bought then.

I added a box of paperclips. Once it takes off the automatic $20 it comes to $149.95. You must get it above $150 for the second $20 to work. Add something cheap like paperclips and it will work. Here is my invoice:

 

 

Subtotal: $170.97

Coupon Total: $40.00

Delivery: $0.00

Tax: $7.86

Call them back and see if you can cancel the order and then reorder with the code. Hope that helps!

I was able to use both codes on the 17" but to make it to the $150 I had to put in a pack of .98 pencils. Then I was able to use the additional $20 code. Hope this helps

I bought a 19" Hanns-G from PCConnection.com for $95 after rebates. My dad has the exact same one and loves it!

[sfanselmo]

OH DARN, didn't even realize that. I just called Staples and order can't be cancelled. Said though that I can take back to the store for immediate refund. May just do that to save the $20.00. Is it worth it though???

Hey everyone, since the original Acer 19" lcd the Staples website is "suggesting" the other Acer 19" lcd model AL1916W for the same price of $169.98. I bought this one as the only difference I seen was that the contrast on this one is 700:1 while the original sales one was 500:1. Unless I'm missing something they seem the same otherwise.

 

So I purchased got the $20 off with the coupon code (thanks ajbrowns), free shipping, and with tax paid just under $160.

 

Haven't posted a link before, so sorry if this doesn't work:

Blah! I knew I should have looked here first. I just bought the Hanns-G 19" Wide at Office Depot. They didn't have it at the store so I bought it online. Came to $196 after tax.

Great deal - i placed 2 orders for the 17 inch monitores thinking i could use both $20 coupons twice. It did take the auto $20 off of each order but only let me use the 99253 on the first order. So this got me searching the web for more coupon codes and I found some others:

 

67337: Free bag of peanut M&M's with order (6.99 value)

15867: Free case of paper with $100 purchase (30.99 value)

TAKE IT BACK TO A BRICK AND MORTAR STORE FOR A FULL REFUND IF YOU WANT A BETTER DEAL.

EXCELLENT POINT! THE LACK OF A DVI INPUT IS A DEAL BREAKER!!!

EXCELLENT POINT! THE LACK OF A DVI INPUT IS A DEAL BREAKER!!!

DVI is a techy term I didn't understand so I googled it and I'm still confused. Is the monitor not having the DVI inputs a huge deal? ...And if so why? So ultimately did I get a good deal for the monitor without DVI at $160 and will it not having DVI make it obsolete much sooner?

One more thing...does anyone know how long Staples takes to ship? I ordered yesterday and they are showing it as shipped from the warehouse already, but they don't provide any sort of tracking numbers or anything on my order status!?! It says delivery on the 27th, but with it already being shipped it might get here sooner. Also I need to know what day so someone can be home to sign for the package & I don't want to sit around all day on the 27th if they're gonna deliver it sooner or later :)

You should be able to track it. Go to staples and click on "order status" at the top right of the screen. After you bring your info up you should see "Track This Shipment" under the portion that has your payment info. Click on it and then you will need to click on "Track This Box" on the next page. That should bring up the UPS tracking info.

 

I hope that helps! (mine took 3 days, which is a little longer than usual. Normally it is next day.)

Most newer computers with add-in video cards have the ability to use the digital features, hence DVI. The blue connector that most of you are connecting to is the analog output.

 

Your HD, or high definition content is best suited for this type of display(digital), so although you can use both outputs, DVI will give you the sharpest picture, given the signal provided to it.

 

You basically answered your own question. Not having DVI will force you in the future to dumb down your capabilities with an SVGA adapter (so your analog monitor will fit the back of the computer if it comes with a white DVI connector).

 

I would not waste my money on it if you can get the newer model for about the same price.

the model i just found for $10 cheaper at compusa has both outputs.:)

Thanks for the help Amie, I followed what you said and still no tracking...So I called customer service. The lady said that it is shipping from an alternate warehouse and a local courier will probably be delivering it & no tracking information would be available I asked if that meant UPS would be delivering it and she said probably not...lets hope it's a reputable company and I actually get it! My dad will just be getting a picture of one in a box for Christmas I suppose. I had bought him something else since I couldn't snag one at BF.

 

Also to the person that suggested CompUSA, thank you I will go check them out as soon as I get off work, if they have them in stock I may go with that and return the Staples one (I looked and couldn't see where they charge any sort of restocking fee so that is good).
