How to buy a used monitor

Dead pixels and backlight bleed are the things to check. Ask the seller to display a full-white and a full-black image and photograph both: white reveals dead or stuck pixels (permanent dark or coloured dots), and black reveals backlight bleed and glow around the edges. A few stuck pixels may be tolerable at the right price, but heavy bleed on a black screen is distracting in dark rooms and cannot be fixed.

Match the panel and refresh rate to your use. IPS panels give the best colour and viewing angles for general and creative work; VA offers deep contrast; fast TN and modern IPS suit gaming. For gaming, a high refresh rate (120Hz and up) is the upgrade you feel, so confirm the actual rate rather than trusting the title. For work, resolution and screen size matter more than speed.

Check the ports and the stand. Make sure it has the inputs you need (HDMI, DisplayPort, USB-C for laptops) and that the correct cables and power brick are included. Confirm the stand is present and adjusts, as replacement stands are awkward to source. Monitors are heavy and fragile, so local pickup avoids shipping damage.

Value. Monitors age slowly, so a good panel a few years old is excellent value if it passes the pixel and bleed checks.

Cheapest by model, at a glance

A daily snapshot of the lowest genuine eBay price for every model we track, and how good that price is right now versus its usual level, updated automatically. Prices last refreshed 12 October 2026. Tap a price to see that model's cheapest listings on eBay, or tap a model name for the full live list here.

These are second hand prices, listed by sellers as used or pre-owned, taken from live eBay US listings in US dollars. In collectible categories a sealed or unworn item is sometimes the cheapest genuine listing, and it is included. The same number works both ways: it is what a buyer pays today and the resale value a seller can realistically ask. Every model also carries a price history, the daily record kept since tracking began, which is the part to read before you buy or resell. On a day when a model has no listing that passes these filters, its row keeps the last price we recorded rather than inventing one, and drops off this table if that goes on for more than a few days.

Under each model is the actual listing that price came from, so you can see whether it is the thing you want or a bundle, a variant, or an accessory that happens to share the name.

Over the period we have tracked, this category is down 4.2%, while the used market as a whole is down 0.3%. See the Used Price Index, which is built from these prices and published as a free CSV.
