Yeah, but when it's cheap chinese crap, it's hard to resist!

AEIComp vs. this place, AEIComp comes out four times as expensive. I can't afford that.

Back on topic (sorry to throw it OFF topic), I got a reply. It looks like they're not understanding my request for a single lcd sample order. Who wants to take one for the team? Two 3.5" LCDs is $24 plus shipping. Split two ways, that's about $30-40 each with shipping. They did not give me shipping information. I never asked.

Alternatively, we could all donate to a BenHeck sample pool, split the loss if they turn out like crap, and if they don't, then we all get reimbursed minus paypal fees. Does that sound fair?

Btw AEIcomp gets there screens from China to just we know those are good. I am just very cautious when it comes to chinese made goods. Broke way to many Made in China tools and parts. Actually be more afraid of Made in India. Down right zero QC.

I'm working on this! Stay tuned!

Nevermind: So? Oh right, that means they must be terrorists plotting against America. Iran exports oil to you, that must mean you're a terrorist or trying to scam people, right? Your logic is fail.

Not necessarily; they could be. There are terrorists (or nationalists) over there, though

It's just somewhat ironic that they were right next to each other when it's not in alphabetical order. The president of Iran said he wanted to destroy Israel and their relationship isn't too friendly.

Does it really matter? No i don't think so. The worst thing you can do is buy chinese crap.

No, it doesn't matter. I don't like buying Chinese crap, but it's pretty hard not to. I don't like how a lot of food comes from there now. And I would never buy one of those "meat flavored" TV dinners from the dollar store. Enough with that. Let's get this thread back on topic.

[Kurt_]

Let's not derail this thread, this whole thing has potential!

I'll go 50/50 with someone for an 8" VGA monitor...

[jjhammerstein]

I wish I needed one, I would be on that like white on rice.
I already have a screen for what I'm working on, and can't afford another.

If you need to pay express fees by us,please let me know,I will add express fees on proforma invoice.

Anyone know what that means?

Anyone want to double-up with me? Cross your fingers hope-to-mail-them-to-me-because-it'll-be-cheaper-to-mail-it-from-Canada? Anyone in Canada want to double up with me? Anyone in American want to double up with that other dude?

It's from china, but... I guess I'll double up with you. If anybody else in the US wants to double up, I can (or they can) have them all shipped to me (or the other person) and ship them to everybody else in the US. Just let me figure out what I want.

[Kurt_]

Annie's willing to ship to two different locations. It works for me, it's probably cheaper than shipping twice. Y'all in the states, maybe not.

So, who's with me, which screen do you want, and give me your contact information. And be prepared to send me money before you get the screen. I'm not paying for an LCD then having it shipped to you only to have you not pay up.

[themadhacker]

they have 3.5 inch screens? sounds perfect for my retro duo portable.

[Kurt_]

So I need one person who's ready to commit to buy with me. I don't need any money yet, but be prepared. All that crap I said above. Who is ready! I guess ain't good enough, I need COMMITMENT! (Alternatively I could just buy two and sell one on here.)

Update:

Made an order, got an invoice, and I call scam.

1) The bank address given does not match the bank SWIFT number's address (for wire transfers). It's in a different district. The given SWIFT number is attached to a different bank of hong kong branch with a different address.
2) The invoice number was today's date. You're telling me they get only one order a day?

Now the hunt begins for the REAL seller of these screens, because they're very nice!

What's the bit color for the psone screen?
16 bit doesn't sound all that great (probably because all of the tvs i have are 32 bit)

Your TVs have support for an alpha channel?!

I meant monitors.
Doi, stupid me.

Let me know before you order them. And if I'm going to be buying screens from you, forget about paying for the controller, and I will have my friend in Canada send the money to you, minus the CAD $4, since he owes me some money.
