Ugh, I FINALLY got the chance to purchase one and go through the process only to find out shipping is now $37.00, not $7.99 like advertised. Oh well.

Does appear the shipping rate has changed. The original shipping rate had been $4.99, which later was changed to $7.99. While the new rate is indeed reasonable, the original post should be updated, yes. As noted though several times throughout this thread, Homer does not frequent these forums often.

However, would be remiss if it were not mentioned that deal has been in effect for nearly 18 months. The shipping rate remained under $8.00 that entire time. The new change is very recent. In fact, would venture to say it occured within the past two or three days, as I was checking stock on Sunday (many for whom I have purchased these monitors for ask if they could possibly receive another) and the $7.99 shipping charge was still in effect.

Received my 'Grade B' 21" Hitachi 811 less than a week after I ordered it. Hardware seems to function well, test will be time no doubt. Aesthetically, small crack on the base (does not interfere with support of display) and a few minor discolorations on the front. Screen is in like new condition, no defects.
Initial result: Pleased with purchase!!

<<EDIT>>
I now notice a faint 'novell' login screen when it's a completely white screen, but hardly anything to cause concern. Just FYI for those of you looking at getting a Grade B.
