I just ordered that one, can't beat the price.

John Will posted in the new deal of the day thread a few times, he has 3 of these and just ordered a 4th one.

Just ordered the 19 inch Hanns G from PC connection $109 after rebates. Hope it is a decent monitor.

Let us know what you think I think we should sign up for some commission

On the rebates, keep copies of everything and be sure you cross the t's and dot the i's

They want the UPC code WITH the Serial Number.....sometimes that is a trip up for folks used to just sending the UPC code

Although I'm late, I'll throw in my 2 cents. I have a Proview. It's great.

I kept copies of everything, BUT in looking at my submission, it appears I submitted the UPC Code sticker, but left the serial number sticker off - I found I still have four stickers with serial number on them. However, I did submit the original packing slip with the serial number from the outside of the carton, AND the serial number is on the Proof of Purchase I submitted with the rebate form. Do you think they will accept thoae, or will they give me a chance to submit the serial number sticker? I thought I was being very thorough, but obviously, I wasn't. I did send the submission Certified Mail - so maybe they will contact me if they need additional info?????

Wish I had read your post before I mailed the rebate.

Normally, you get to send in missing info if they ask for it. I have pretty good luck with rebates, but you have to read the fine print and be careful to submit all the stuff they ask for.

Unless you get something totally different than all of mine, you should like it. The three I currently have work great, and they also have no detectable bad pixels.

I'm guessing that you may be asked to resubmit. Like John said, MOST companies will allow that. I did run into one (KWorld Media, whom I will never buy another product from) who, even though they either lost my rebate, or claimed they never received it, refused to take resubmissions. I cried foul to Fry's Electronics and they gave me a $30 instore voucher...so, that made me happy once again

We hooked this one up yesterday, and at first glance, it looks great. Like I said, we're using it as a TV setup, so it's hard to judge the 'computer' quality aspect of it, but we're happy with it

There was a guy a while back that omitted the serial # from the $90 Hanns-G rebate, and they allowed him to send it in after the fact.
