#1
Look, Dell has gotten boring and I wanted to spice things up a bit. Anyone have any easy brands for a monitor or 2?

Is HP an option for you?
As with Dell, they offer ARs, which the advantage pretty much speaks for Itself.

Not really saying yes or no here, but it would definitely be a challenge finding any good S/N's from them online these days (let alone something in warranty LOL)...
Any other brands you recommend?

I'm pretty sure HP is much more restrictive with their warranty policy. But I could be wrong...

What's the best source for finding HP S/Ns, because my usual (ebay, craiglist) aren't working so much.

Guessing rebills will happen if 'fault item' isn't sent back?

Best-case scenario (often): nobody (nor the original owners) are rebilled. The SE was an overall success for you.
The average-case scenario: They make attempts to contact you, in which if they fail they will then try to get ahold of original owner in attempt to rebill.
Worse-case scenario: Authorities get involved (rare). You AND owner billed. (I've only heard this happen 2 or 3 times before.
Address(es) from Dell/Alienware CS become BLACKLISTED. And, of course, the cherry on top, collection agency(s).
