I just picked up a acer gn246hl, I didn't have a dvi cable so I used the monitor on vga, everything worked perfectly fine, fast forward I got a Dvi-D cable so I plugged it into my pc and then into my monitor and powered evrything on, the little logo startup process happened and then the screen turned black when it would normally show the "starting windows animaton". After a little more blackness a blue box appears with the text "no signal" then the monitor goes black again and the power light turns orange/amber

Well if it works on VGA then use it that way, or resell it and list it as only working on VGA. You didn't necessarily get scammed by the seller, he may have never used it on DVI or maybe it's something else in your system that's preventing it from working; the cable or the video card, or it's just a typical Acer product and broke.
