Samsung SyncMaster 245B - Where to buy?

[Cortexian]

I'm trying to track down two more Samsung SyncMaster 245B monitors in like-new condition. I believe the monitor has been discontinued because I can't find it "new" anywhere, and there are hardly any ads for it on sites like ebay.

If anyone knows of a good place to check for these, please let me know here!

Why do you want that specific monitor, just to ask.

So it matches, silly.

I read two more, why the fuck would you need 4 monitors or the same thing O_O;



also, hai Limited.

Exactly this, my minor OCD wouldn't be able to stand having a triple-monitor setup with different monitors.

I only have one, I said "I need two more" as in "I need two more if this monitor that I currently have".

Be careful about buying same-model monitors at different times. I bought my two monitors (Acer AL2216Ws) about ten months apart, and although they are the exact same model, they are different. They are different heights (I had to put stuff under one of them to make them sit at the same height), the color is not as good on one of them, and there are some other subtle differences.

...the color is not as good on one of them...

Unfortunately, this will almost always happen between any two displays, even if the LCDs are exactly the same, especially in lower-end/budget models.

Though both of my VA2226ws are on SRGB color mode, they have obvious differences (one is distinctly bluer). I can correct it with manual color settings, but I'm too lazy to actually do it.

I might go soft and buy three 22" monitors (SyncMaster 2243BW's) because they're cheaper and due to the resolution restrictions implemented in TripleHead2Go. I'm going to be using TripleHead instead of SoftTH because I'll be using GTX 285's in SLI, and since SLI only outputs to one DVI port I can't use SoftTH.

The other option is to buy two SyncMaster 245T's and place em on either side of my 245B. Height isn't really an issue because they all have adjustable height stands, as well as tilt and pivot.
