These are valid points I agree, I just hate it when people argue that their 0 dead pixel policy is the reason why everyone should drop hundreds more for the Dell over the Hazro.
Yes. Should be in stock in 2 weeks
30'' Monitor Prices Why so high?

I wanted a HZ30Wi, but just ordered a U3011, because it was impossible to get a hold of Hazro and have them answer my emails. Lack of information/support. Customer service means quite a bit to me.
You're wrong about Dell's dead pixel policy, they actually allow up to 5 dark sub-pixels on the screen before replacing it.
I've got one tiny dark dot on my Dell and they would never replace it

This is why you pay a premium for a quality monitor:

Anyone for a Hazro?

Firms may argue that a 16:10 manufacturing process is more costly than 16:9 too... even if the 27" panel is a WQHD one which would make this point mute. (Only "Full HD 1080p" should be considered here as the firm can slap a TV tuner into such a monitor and call it a TV without too much greater cost.)
Firms will do whatever they can to exploit consumers in a market of imperfect knowledge. If we don't know the true costs of manufacturing then firms can charge whatever they want as long as they remain competitive to each other.
Also Hazro's QC is terrible since they actually started getting a larger amount of orders. Their pixel policy is not anything to shout about either. If you MUST buy Hazro only do it for their AG coated, aluminium cased screens. The glossy ones definitely need time to mature in manufacturing process. You may not escape dead subpixels but at least you won't have dust/hair under the glass.

Dont get me wrong though I love my 3008wfp but didant pay for it though orded a 20" monitor for £200 for my gf that was DOA some one at dell messed up and sent me a £1000 3008 as a replacment 
But Well affter owning one I think 30" monitors are over rated if all you use it for is gameing and watching movies. I allrdy owned a 2407 and given the choice I would rather have had another 2407 instead.
But understandably diddant want to point that out tio Dell just incase they asked for it back lol

Interesting opinion.
I see in your signature that you have experience with both the Dell and the Hazro 30-inchers. Would you say the lower cost Hazro 30-inch is similar in display quality to the Dell 30-inch? Are the anti-glare coatings different or similar?
The standard Hazro (the type I use) uses a Q3 LG panel, not a Q5 like the more expensive HZ30Wi-Q or Dell U3011. However, comparing the two, the Hazro has a more noticeable sparkle effect and colour push than the Dell screen. The Dell pushes red so whites look pinkish but to a lesser extent (IMO) than the Hazro [Q3 panel] pushes to green. Due to the more aggressive AG coating on the (again, standard) HZ30Wi allows me to guide you in the direction of the Dell for overall display quality. The backlighting of the Hazro seems to be more noticeable in a way too, in that the black level is not quite as deep as one might like it to be.
You get what you pay for. The standard HZ30Wi is still a fine monitor pending you can live with a few potentially stuck or dead subpixels/pixels. Ultimately there is a simple reason why I chose the Hazros as flanking screens to the Dell I initially bought: 1. 2 x U3011 = £2400. 2. 2 x HZ30Wi = ~£1700
My point is that Hazro made the aluminium cased screens first for industrial use, that is more close to their business plan than a more consumer-oriented model. In other words, let the company make what they make best and give them time to adapt to manufacturing more consumer-oriented models.
