FYI, the Rakuten site states up to 5 dead pixels as acceptable. Massdrop states 0. It's up to you if the ~$30 difference is worth it.

RevNelsonIt would be great to get some response from Massdrop as to the query earlier about "how can Massdrop guarantee 0 dead pixels when Monoprice says 5?" I assume it's because Massdrop is dealing directly with Monoprice and specifying that they're only accepting monitors with 0 dead pixels.
Anyway, yes, the $30 is worth it to me to get a 0 dead pixel guarantee. The feedback on Monoprice and Rakuten _mostly_ says "YAY! NO DEAD PIXELS!" But there are a few that say, "stuck red pixel. Nothing I can do about it." That would drive me all the way crazy, so I'm willing to spend the extra money (and time) at Massdrop.
...but it would be great to get a definitive response from Massdrop confirming that they have an arrangement with Monoprice to actually guarantee 0 dead pixels.
