Hyundai L90D+ LCD $340 no rebate/shipping @COMPUSA

[vk8]

Ordered mine at 9am on the 7th, still nothing.

Wow..... with L90D+ 's starting to show up I decided to go check the front door as I rarely use the front door....... FedEx left a door tag... They couldn't leave it without a signature...... Looks like I'll have mine by Monday at the latest......

Well, as I said on the other thread, I got a mail from CompUSA saying that they were shipping the L90D and not the L90D+. I told them to cancel if it was the L90D, and hence it was cancelled ....OOOOPS :shocked:

I gave up on stupid CompUSA and ordered mine from TigerDirect yesterday. It shipped same the same day and will be here via UPS on Monday and i only chose UPS ground.

I guess i should of just waited on CompUSA since some of you are getting yours now but mine said that it would ship in 7-10 business days when i ordered and i wasn't for sure if CompUSA was even going to come through on this.

CompUSA will also be a bigger pain if i need to RMA for some reason.

This monitor is beautiful. No dead or wonky pixels on mine. I have it set up to use both Analog and DVI, and both look great. I'll have to wait until tomorrow morning to see if there will be any problems with glare. I've only been staring at this screen for about 2 hours, but I'm definitely a happy camper.

Does anyone know of any good (and free) LCD monitor calibration software? Not sure if I need it, but I just want to make sure I'm maximizing my viewing experience. Thanks in advance.

I'm glad to see the deal goes through.

next thing you know, YUGO will re-emerge with an lcd

If someone doesn't want theirs, let me know!

When did you get this notification, I ordered mine 2/8/2005 5:31:26 AM and have recieved two emails from compusa, one confirming my order, and the other saying they approved my order and were "now" processing my order.

I'm in the same boat as bunnyfubbles... I orderd on the 8th as well.. only received 2 emails.

My status is still open, and I'd think yours would be the same. These two guys claim to have recieved their monitor even with their "Open" status (as if they never received an email saying it was shipped and coming to them.

I ordered mine on 2/8/04. Every day since, my status page only showed it as "Open". When I got home today, I was shocked to see an LCD box outside my door. It is indeed the L90D+. I can't believe I'm saying this, but CompUSA really came through on this one. I'll try it out tonight and report back on my overall experience with the quality of this thing.

Granted, trentdoan orderd on the 6th, however easy2kill ordered on the 8th. Considering I got mine in @ 5am on the 8th, its interesting how the shipping is working out. Based on that I haven't lost all hope yet. Sucks though, the last thing I absolutely NEED for my new A64 rig is my monitor, I've got everything else except a nice new gaming PCI-e card, of which I'll get by in the mean time with an old PCI throw away. No spare monitors up here away from home

I got the email on Friday or Saturday. I had emailed them three times and finally got a reply. Will probably give them a call today and see what is actually going on.

Bad CSRs make the murlock angry!

18 minutes on hold for them to say they were still waiting for them to be shipped from the manufacturer, but he did say they were expecting them early this week, which probably means it will be another week.

 

[Abem3]

COMPUsa still says "open"

It was on my front doorstep this morning... haven't unboxed it yet..

 

[vk8]

When did you order yours? I am really hoping for a nice V-day surprise when I get home.

Just spoke to Trina at CrapUsa CSR. She claims vk8 is full of it, and that he's lying. LOL. She called you a LIAR! I guess they have their signals crossed or something. She claims at the very latest, my monitor WILL ship by tomorrow. *shrug. I don't think I'll ever buy from CrapUSA again, as this is pretty ridiculous.

[Abem3]

I ordered on the 6th.. so basically 6 working days from when I ordered it I received it.

It would have been nice for their website to update, but that doesn't matter to me now.

Hooked it up and it looks very nice. I will give it a full run through later but all looks good so far. Thanks OP!

 

[EvilTwin996]

I ordered two on the 8th. Still waiting. Got an email response back to my inquiry stating, basically, they're waiting for a new shipment from the supplier.

 

[bunnyfubbles]

it woudln't be so bad if we had a clue what our order status was, all these orders ariving when they haven't been reported as shipped, thats not very good. I'd be much happier knowing for sure whether my monitor is a week away or on its way to my door at this very moment.

Well I finally got the shipment from CompUSa... GUESS WHAT?!?!?! they screwed it up, they sent me a Hyundai L70S... $243 online... after being on hold for 25 minutes, Ashley lines me up for an RMA after telling me they cannot get anymore. Isnt that false advertising? Well I come back and check my email and I see something from CompUSA... guess what?!??!! it was not an RMA, it was an email about sending in my rebate?!?! rebate?

I told Ashley I would never order from them again, and, excuse my language, that this was piss poor customer service.

Bunch of worthless crap... glad they went out of business in most of alabama and florida.

 

[rise]

man does that suck, i feel for ya. damn does that suck, i'm speechless.

... CrapUSA in the doghouse with Oupost and TigerDirect... crosses fingers that he won't get pissed about his order more so than he is now. Why couldn't newegg have this monitor cheaper?

[cw42]

i've ordered from outpost like 5 times, and theyve been fine for me everytime.

 

[StWendeler]

got my monitor... bright as $h!t, too bright. huge size, 1 stuck blue sub-pixel in center of screen... arrrghhh. Didn't notice until 20 min after powering on and fired up VietCong. Static black screen made it apparent. Not a big deal, since you don't notice it at all 99% of the time. HIQ's warranty says that 3 full pixels (ie all black/all white) isn't defective, and 9 sub pixels (always red/green/blue) is min for warranty. I guess this makes sense, in that you'd notice an all white/all black pixel, whereas the subpixels don't show except for with certain backgrounds. I don't see the blue when I have white background or any other color except for black.

Here are some prelim results. Not sure I'd call it an 8ms monitor. It may be my old graphics card having probs with 1280x1024, but it doesn't seem as crisp as CRT when I swivel around. 'course, that's to be expected. BTW, I'm using analog signal but expect to upgrade to DVI within a year.

The twinkling effect is apparent, but have to test with DVDs to see what happens. Also going to check to see if there's ghosting in video. The color accuracy seems quite good. Fired up some pics taken with my 5mp camera and they all looked pretty good. There's not much in the way of documentation. They ship it with a quick install guide (useless if you're over the age of 7) and a cdrom with drivers/"manual" in pdf format. Didn't notice any difference between standard windows drivers and HIQ drivers, but what the heck

One prob I have is the portrait mode... You're able to swivel the monitor vertically, but for some reason the orientation of windows stays the same (ie. moving the mouse up makes it go to the right, etc.) Anyone know how to tell the monitor to snap the signal into portrait mode?

interpolation (setting resolution to something less than 1280x1024) isn't really too bad. at 1024x768, it was acceptable, although you do notice that it's not as crisp.

Viewing angles seem to be okay... not sure what I'm looking for here other than picture degradation, which I don't notice at all.
