Question Need input on LCD Screens

So a freind of mine, who owns a Mercedes with 20"s and all the bling.... wants to sell me some brand new in a box moniters.


There are 2 Casio 6.5" LCD moniters, they can be mounted to a headrest or flat surface. He says he payed $1,200 for them .....now with the shit he got in his Benz id belive it.

What i dont belive is that they are even close to being worth $1200.... They have thin edges, OSD's, headphone jack etc.... And are brand new, But doesnt CASIO make watches? Im asuming that they are not worth as much as he states.

He wants to sell them to me for $600....yay or nay?

what do you plan on using it for?

find the dot pitch if possible

you will want a smaller dot pitch for applicaitons such as an in car computer, but you dont have to worry about this as much for just watching dvds and such.

I don't have 20"s on my Gen3, but I'm sure my carputer trumps all that. Slim PS2 anyone?

Again, not impressed -- which leads me to believe your friend paid wayyyy too much for a set of monitors.

No power supply yet... Still trying to decide high power inverter vs. 12V regulated...

But yes, my carputer is sitting about 5 ft. away from me.

You buy a regulated power supply...

And as far as cost... I really don't want to know at this point how much I spend on my stuff. Ask me tmrw on AIM and I'll total it up.
