Only about a year old. Has barely been used in that time. Only selling because I've decided to go the way of the HTPC and already have a larger lcd in the lounge doing the job.
This is not the cheaper 24" model that you see in the dell catalogues. This was the model priced at $999 and has been replaced by the 2408.
I had the ps3 running through this for a while and blu ray at 1080p looked awesome!
Start the bidding at $550.
Reason for sale is I'm considering either a set of Z5500's for my HTPC or nice shiny new case with an LCD :)
First of all it hasn't had a years use. I have owned it for almost a year and it has probably only been used for about 3-4 months as I have been without an actual pc for a long while.
Also, I think you have your model numbers mixed up. If you had read the first post you would have noticed I mentioned this is not the cheaper model you see going for around 600. This is infact the one that goes for 999. Otherwise could you please provide a link to where I can get this model monitor for 699.
Btw I will have a look for the warranty papers as I'm sure it's got plenty left I have just misplaced the receipt at my old place :)
Goodluck getting it for that price that is if they ever have those specials again :) also I still think my price is fair. Will post how much warranty over the weekend.

Those prices arent specials, its their every day online retail price. 24" - 30" Monitors
Quote from Milenko;345064: The existing 24inch entry level is 599$, the higher model is still $999.
Sorry you've misunderstood me because my post was in reply to Raker. I did not notice your post till after I had replied :)
So yeah $599 is the current price for the entry level and $999 for the better model, which is the same as my one.
Quote from RakeR;345063: Back in January Dell was selling this exact model, the UltraSharp 24in 2407 for $799 with 3yrs warranty.
So it would be safe to say that if dell was getting rid of these now it would be around $699 or less.
As it is a year old and the warranty cant be proven, I would have started at around $350. So $400 is still very generous.
Remember these are computer parts, they depreciate quicker then most things and Dell even recognise this.
Even at your guesstimated figure of $699 brand new my price is still cheaper, and yes mine now has warranty :D Basically I'm just seeing if anyone wants to save a few dollars and have the convenience of getting it now locally. If you aren't interested that's cool.
OK the reason I offered $400 Is I was able to find the exact model you offered new for $699 delivered.
2nd I lose two major advantages over buying new. 1)Full waranty (you have started you don't have the waranty info to even claim the remaining year) 2)A tax invoice that I can use to offet tax(a non insignificant amount). If you get what you want for it goodluck my offer of $400 still stands.
actually it was dropped to 599 usa when they were getting rid of the last of there stock of that model number monitor. To claim that cause the new iteration of your monitor is 999 so yours is worth 999 is like saying a ps3 is xxx so a ps2 is worth xxx admittedly not to the same level but the point remains the same, your bein greedy.
well knowing how angry an individual you are you probably think anyone dumb enough not to research deserves to pay an unfair price paladin but some of us dont like to let stuff like that happen on a community forum....
It's simple people, throw in a bid. If Jm3 has a figure in mind then he won't sell it if it's lower, however it might be considered. The only person losing here is himself due to a potential no sale.
all we are saying is that the price he is asking is too high as a starting bid.
I am all for selling secondhand goods, but it is just that, its secondhand.
The problem with selling so long after the original purchase is that it is available new and cheaper now.
This all has to be taken into consideration.
It might be fine asking for a price close to what you can get it new for, just the problem is dont expect to get that with informed buyers who know the market, like GU.
if you can get that price then you have done well, but as a buyer like myself and morge for instance, we will be trying to get it as low as we can as to find the best bargain and value for our $.
We all have figures in mind when we buy things, and this is no different. Morges is $400, mine was $350 and DoWhat's, well I dont really know if he is interested or not, or just here to give Jm3 a hard time :P
Anyway, good luck with the sale. Its always hard to sell computer gear secondhand, depreciates so quickly as new versions get released so often.
Now I see why you wanted this one. Consider selling yours? :) Make me an offer via pm. I really shouldn't even ask as pay day is tomorrow and I'll be tempted as hell.

shrug, if someone is happy to pay a price for something, and someone is happy to let it go for that price, everyone wins. it doesn't matter if it's fair or not, as the two parties involved are happy.
