I would appreciate it if any purchaser could advise if they had to pay any US import duties/tarrifs to Fedex/UPS on delivery. I will be using this as a gaming monitor. Should I expect to have to lower the video quality settings when using such a high resolution for a demanding FPS like Far Cry 3? Many thanks.

Yes. got a bill from UPS a couple weeks after the delivery for $19.50 (12.50 Duty Amount and 7.00 Disbursement Fee).

I also didnt pay any import fees or taxes. I use mine as a gaming monitor. Yes, it does lower your FPS and uses more video RAM. I'm running a single GTX 670 and while I'm getting lower frames than before. I still see 60+ fps in most modern games with the settings maxxed out. However you didnt mention your PC specs. So I can't comment on your experience.

No import duties paid by me. I paid the $12.99 for express shipping and got the monitor just 60 hours after I placed my order. I can't comment on your gaming question.

I paid no import duties. I did not pay for express shipping and still got my monitor in about 3-4 days to the Midwest straight from South Korea. 2560x1440 takes a LOT of power. You should go check video card reviews, but roughly if you want Ultra Detail settings at 2560x1440 in a game like Far Cry 3 and get 40+ fps you will need something like a Radeon 290X or Nvidia 780 or better. Something like a 7850 or 660 Ti will not cut it at all. I have a 7970 and can run Saints Row 4 or Starcraft 2 at ultra details with smooth FPS (50+ generally), but for Crysis 3 or Far Cry 3 I have to turn some of the detail settings down from Ultra/Max or it is too choppy.

Top Hat, I'm having the same experience you did. My HDTV was supposed to be delivered tomorrow. Even tho the Amazon product page says the item will be delivered via White Glove, the trucking company said it will not. I've spent the past 90 minutes on the phone, being passed from Adorama (the seller) to Amazon to the trucking company back to Adorama back to Amazon back to the trucking company. It turns out that the product page is misleading. It's only when you buy your TV from Amazon.com that you can get the WG service. BUT, here's the tricky part. You can't just add the item to your cart and go through checkout. You have to click on the list that says "18 New and Used," or whatever the number is. Then you have to SELECT amazon.com as the seller. Isn't it nice that this isn't mentioned ANYWHERE on the product page? I couldn't find anything in the Help section, either. So, I've cancelled my order with Adorama so I can place the order directly from Amazon.com, thus making sure I get the White Glove service. What a PIA!!!

You may want to look at the review of this monitor over at tftcentral. They cover all the details.

I ordered this TV and it came in a box that had obviously been previously opened and then taped up.I clicked to return the item - it looks like Amazon is requiring me to ship UPS/FedEx (which I understand) but I'll have to pay for the shipping (at least at first, I think) and then I'll get a refund, not a replacement. I wanted this TV but I don't know if I'll get the same deal by the time the refund goes through.

Thank you for e-mail. We can ship it to KAZAKHSTAN with the tracking service. the cost of the shipping is $41. And by Amazon you need to wait for 1 month, because we need to check your payment. If you have Paypal account and pay by Paypal, We can send it ASAP. Maybe the time you need to wait is shoter than by Amazon. And We can save your shipping cost $10. If possible, e-mail to us directly. eco_eco_21(atto mark)yahoo.co.jp Of cource, This transaction is protected by Paypal system, if you complain our trade. And this camcorder is Japanese only. is it OK ? If it is Ok, contact with me, please. Thank you.

Best Buy matched Frys' $549 price. After tax, it was $602 with free shipping and setup. A great deal for a plasma. I'm afraid if something goes wrong I won't be able to get a deal quite like this. The only problems I have now are some men logo silhouttes that go away when playing tv/blu ray and some grain in the picture. How typical is the grain/noise for plasma. I read varying takes on it. I have until tomorrow to buy the extd. warranty from Best Buy. I'll check what coverage my credit card gives as well. Thank you all!

I played bf3 and bf4 on it and I did not notice any ghosting or slow response time. Colors were great. However it broke after 18 months. Warranty is only 1 year. I strongly recommend this monitor instead. ASUS PB278Q 27" WQHD 2560x1440 PLS/ IPS DisplayPort HDMI DVI-D VGA Ergonomic Back-lit LED MonitorWorks great for fps, equal or maybe better PQ and three years warranty

I'd also like to know what settings other people are using. I have my PS3 hooked up to this monitor and blu-rays look terrible on it. My PS3 is set to 1080p output and still the blu-rays look extremely grainy and there's streaks in dark areas. I have no clue what to do. I took back another ASUS model because of this issue. I was hoping this one would be different, but it's not. Please, someone post your settings.

Amazon only allows certain items to be purchased and shipped internationally, mostly just media mail; books, DVD, CD's. if there is no ability for you to purchase on my listing, there is no way I can ship it to you. Sorry. Regards, My Gaming World
