Nah, NEC makes a decent display, assuming it hasn't got an off-brand tube in it. If the picture's good, then you did just fine.

Well, I should qualify my statement I guess . . . $300 is about going rate as long as we aren't talking about a refurbished monitor. You can get cheaper displays (I've seen no-name 19"s going for $175 us), but the picture quality on generic tubes, with crappy interconnects, is often not good enough for art purposes.
