Pick a gaming monitor model and see the lowest current prices on eBay, the biggest secondhand monitor marketplace, with shipping, condition and seller rating side by side. Prices are pulled live, so what you see is what sellers are actually asking this minute.
Live from eBayDead 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.

Used gaming monitors typically cost 40-70% below new. High-refresh 144Hz+ displays and ultra-wide panels depreciate fastest once newer models launch.
