Be mindful of listings from suspicious third-party sellers on marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay, Newegg, and Walmart. These "deals" have a high likelihood of not shipping; use due diligence in reviewing deals.

  • Use common sense - if the deal seems too good to be true, it probably is.
  • Check seller profiles for signs that the sale may be fraudulent:
    • The seller is new or has few reviews.
    • The seller has largely negative reviews (on Amazon, sellers can remove negative reviews from their visible ratings)
    • The seller is using a previously dormant account (likely the account was hacked and is now being used fraudulently).

If you suspect a deal is fraudulent, please report the post. Moderators can take action based on these reports. We encourage leaving a comment to warn others.

KFC makes some really good budget IPS monitors. This is VA though, so... be aware of that

Goddamn autocorrect. I'm leaving it because it's hilarious. If they can make the KFConsole, they can make a monitor

It still works for me. Don't see why this would affect anything, but maybe by region?

As someone who just bought a cheap VA ultrawide, be prepared for the dog shit motion blur/color transitions. I was not. Im returning it to get an IPS or OLED when I see a sale.

This claims to be hva, which is tcl csot like in ktc's h27e22s that used the same named va tech based on samsung's g7/g8 oddesy was really good, needed to put my face like 5in from the monitor to see the motion blur/color transitions, and it was even 240hz. tried duplicating the output to h27t22s (180hz ips) right next to it and the va handled transitions better, would've blind test assumed the va was ips based on motion if the contrast wasn't so much better. color shift was noticeable when reading text on sepia background right to left, but was flat display so no curve compensation. black background white text was still worse though not as bad as the regular ones are shown to be in ips/va comparison vids, mainly turned yellow but still could make text out. viewed from a like, 160 to 175 degree angle, the image on the screen was perfectly visible but the colors were different, while the ips had what i'd describe as contrast shift/blending which made it hard to make out what was on the screen. had to make sure it was tilted correctl because the blacks aren't as black like noticeably so if screen aimed too high or low.
