I believe its like this. If at the moment of purchase, testing there & then and if any dead pixel is found, the dealer is obliged to exchange for another immediately till you're satisfied. If you send back to Samsung on your own, I think the 7 dead pixel policy would be enforced. Actually 7 pixels is "crap" policy.
Talk about Samsung. Did you know that they charge customers Rm35 deposit for any bench repairs?. YES!.
First time heard of such but I politely refused and said to the girl, its a stupid policy which I've not heard off in 50 years.
It was implemented because of customers not wanting to repair and left their items there for good, thus Samsung at their own expense to dispose of such items.
I said " YEAH!..Malaysia BOLEH!" it because only such crap policies can exist in Malaysia. Every Malaysian customer is potential thief, robber, shoplifter, no intergrity and untrustworthy.
Thats what I wrote in the customer survey form handed to me.

That's why there's no such thing as 30 days money back guarantee here.

when i check the first LCD the shop offer me, it had at least 10 black dots all around!

Yeah, better check the monitor before you part with the cash.

Here in Malaysia, the dealers have only one policy - once sold, considered forgotten!

The new Samsung 2253BW is readily available now..as seen in Low Yat. RM990 only...cheaper than previous 226BW. I don't think it'll be any cheaper up to end of year. Might as well go for it if wanting 22" WS.

well, i gathered from another forum that people were able to get the samsung 2253bw for as long as RM940 last month at lowyat. And the price of electronics always reduce with time

ooh, from what i heard from my coursemate (max_87

) that lcd actually uses a lot of different technology

and also he made me into looking for getting 2 lcd

..Does all those technology really matter (like ISP,TN and etc ). Man, Brian was correct all along

Btw, jasperchc you actually bought a LG lcd? Which model is that

..And for how much

Maybe i'll get 1 lcd and use my current crt for the time being..
