    Hi all, I am looking to purchase a monitor and was wondering if people have thoughts on "debranded" items (e.g., "HP Debranded"). Are these really same quality products as their branded counterparts?

    Thanks!!

    HP monitors aren't really that great in the first place...

    wow this sounds really shady. where are you finding these? i'd stay away from non-mainstream resellers esp for an LCD where there's a good chance they're selling you returned monitors with dead pixels and stuff lol
