Buying monitors from overseas

[jes205]

hi, anybody ordered monitors from Amazon before? Besides needing to use a adaptor, any other issues? Looking at a 24"BenQ VA LED GL2450 24-Inch Screen LED-lit Monitor only US$129.99.

I am also wondering. Looks cheap and now got free delivery.

That monitor isn't sold by Amazon itself, therefore it does not qualify for free shipping... Must go through forwarder.

Did it with my XL2420TE. Ordered, live chatted with CSO to ask for waiver, and got it.

Be warned, the biggest risk is not the DP/BP but whether it comes cracked or not. They did not give protection to it. So it came in those normal packaging boxes. Heng, they used DHL so all is fine.

thanks for the details. I am actually concerned if it will arrive broken. Too bad no shipping insurnace.

How about warranty? Spoilt after 1 year how? Send back?

Send back will cost a bomb, can get new monitor by then if spoil. So u gotta weigh the risks urself.
