Looks like there are plenty of Taobao alternatives.
Paying for about RM1300 shipped to Malaysia, can get you a HP/DELL OEM 27", or glossy 27" LG IPS. Barebones none or limited OSD options.
At this price, seller guarantees Zero bright dot. Subtract Rm100 off the price tag for up to 3 bright dots.

I read a lot of sellers mention that HD5850 don't work with it.
While some people mentioned that using it on their 5850 cannot show BIOS but works when it reaches windows.

Do you have any method/know any people with 5850 that can test that out?

Yeap I was aware of that.
I have yet to purchase it. With the price war going on at ebay, it went from $400 to $320 now, which is like RM1000 shipped.
Plenty interesting price point

As to your wobbly stand, maybe you can get a Vesa mount?

Shipping cost is the same worldwide.
So you can tell us how much they make.
Based on catleap at $360, yours being $230-ish, they make maybe $10-20 per monitor. But they might get bulk price since they buy more
But if it is ship to Malaysia, then shipping is like $70 from Korea. so they can make maybe $60
So in actual sense, it monitor cost is $300 shipped to Malaysia if get from retail
If you want to help me buy and ship from korea can geh

No tax for computer stuff to Malaysia.
Ketam might be greedy and claim this is a TV, which is taxable. In that case, need to go visit them already.
But if you can visit them, then for sure is no problem with tax.
So far, I found Pos Malaysia to be plenty reliable for my stuff. In addition, Korean EMS pricing is very cheap, even when compared to Malaysian International Poslaju price.

Also, they are appearing at garage sales, the yamasaki catleap
But super expensive. From ebay with zero dead pixel is $430. Buy from this guy without dead pixel guarantee is Rm1500, need to pay for shipping lagi.
But i'd prefer non catleap, due to the stand. Maybe a crossover/shimian others.

No worries. I was not serious
Nice input on the zero pixel there. I thought it was bright pixel from the get go, so the extra charge might not be worth the trouble.

Maybe I'll try to nego with the ebay sellers since shipping to Malaysia can net a cheaper shipping price from them.

Already ask the sellers for total cost to Malaysia.

Can get the Yamasaki Catleap @ original price of $328 for $290 when shipping to malaysia.
i.e RM900 for a 27" IPS with 2560x1440

Between 60Hz and 100Hz, any difference?
When i tried it on movies with the TV, they look very wierd, totally not used to it.

Actually, it is RM900 shipped for the non-OC version.
Not sure how much for OC version.

You have to ask the ebay sellers with 'make offer' to tell you how much. Otherwise you'd be paying the list price.

You should probably call up dell and ask. It's the same brand of laptop and monitor after all.
What is your processor model number?

NT23699 , more than RM2k.

Thanks for the pointer.
Though, a lot of difference between local and Taiwan price.
