Not sure if everyone saw this but I ordered two Yamakasi Catleap Q270's off ebay. Less than $400 and allegedly the same LG 2560x1440 panel found in the 27" Apple/ Dell monitors. Received the monitors yesterday (took about four business days) but only opened one. That first one is flawless though with no dead pixels. Granted, warranty is not going to be great, and these are IPS and not either 3D or gaming panels, but for the price absolutely great. I think some have had issues so it is a gamble, but I hope to soon have both sitting on either side of my HP ZR30w.
Again: these come from international sellers in Korea and if you get a bad one, it will not be good, but for the price that gamble paid off for me (in the first of two tries.) Will post results from the second one next week.
