TFT, LCD & Plasma Pixel Policy
As a 15inch LCD display contains 2,359,296 pixels, a 19inch LCD display contains 3.932.160, and a 24inch display contains 6,912,000, having a "few" dead pixels is not considered a defect. It is rare for a monitor to ship with, or develop pixel irregularities. If or when a dead pixel occurs, it is not an indication that more will occur. It is usually a solitary incident. Therefore, Componnt Warehouse feel it is important to make our customers aware that some screens may have slight irregularities in the form of dead pixels. Unfortunately, Component Warehouse will only be able to replace a screen that has three or more dead pixels spread across the screen, or two dead pixels that are connected to each other. We are sorry for any disappointment this may cause our customers, however, the manufacturers of TFT, LCD and Plasma screens dictate this policy. Please contact our Customer Support Department for any further clarification regarding this policy.
