      Find something used. If you have Facebook, see the market place. I don’t have Facebook, my wife does, and I always find great deals on it. Bought me a Dell 27" 4 monitor for $80. That thing is used $275 used on Amazon. If no Facebook, then try eBay. Used is not that bad most of the time.

        ebay seems to just be a place for scammers and people selling used items for new prices.

          I’ve actually noticed that, too, but you can still run into good things, although very rarely.
