FYI, I'm sending back my newegg order. Way too much backlight bleeding. Mine was a Rev 1, newegg did a return and refund without any restocking fee

tmoney468@tmoney468 I'm hoping that our order is the latest version, since it seems to be shipping directly from the factory in South Korea.
In my experience, many items that are heavily discounted on NewEgg seem to be older revisions or less-desirable models that have been replaced or are about to be upgraded.
LG may be using NewEgg as a dumping ground, and NewEgg using LG as a source for a great sale price on a scarce item.

StewartWBI was part of the first drop 2nd shipment. My monitor was shipped October 8th. The manufacture date was September 2014. Within 2 weeks the thunderbolt port on the monitor failed. LG says they can replace it with a refurbished monitor or refund the money. They say they do not have any new monitors in stock to ship as a replacement. This they told me only after sending in the Massdrop receipt to them. All along I was promised a new replacement monitor. They may have looked at the price sold by Massdrop and likely decided that it is better to refund instead of replacing it with a monitor that they could fetch a higher price elsewhere. Yes their official policy is that the consumer displays they need to replace with a new if it is DOA within 30 days. Poor quality control on top of that callous customer service from LG is a losing combination unfortunately. I can't believe they never had a strategy of having replacement stocks available especially since I have read about numerous of these early shipped monitors failing. I hope they can get their act together on this. It was a nice display, when it worked for 2 weeks.
