I bought this monitor a few weeks ago from Best Buy. I took my receipt in today and they gave me the price match.
I think the monitor is great. I'm a CPA so I use it for tax software, Excel, etc. along with watching YouTube, Xfinity, etc. I hooked up a Roku to the 2nd HDMI input and that works very well. Text is super crisp. I set Windows 10 to 200% scaling and it works perfect (anything smaller is too small for me). 4k video from YouTube looks great. Despite being an IPS panel, contrast looks absolutely fine. Viewing angles are superb.
The stand is very good too as it's easy to adjust height which is important for a monitor of this size.
Before I bought this, I actually tried 2 different 4k tvs out for monitor usage. I had bought a Samsung 32Q50R for around $399 and a Sony 43X800H for $398 (rated fantastic to use as a PC monitor). I ended up returning both. I liked the Sony better than the Samsung as the text looked sharper but there was an annoying input lag using the mouse which would come and go (the TV was always in the proper mode for PC use). Also, 43 inches is massive for a monitor viewed from around 3 feet away. My neck was getting sore from looking up to the top of the monitor. Side to side was fine, top to bottom was difficult to live with.
Regarding the Samsung, it just doesn't look as good as the LG IPS monitor. Video quality was probably a bit better on the Samsung as it has a slightly glossy screen with a drop better contrast but for everyday work, I much prefer the LG. Text is rendered clearer and darker on the LG no matter what angle you're looking at on the screen. In addition, with the Roku, it fares well for secondary TV usage (although I wish the Roku could control the volume of the built in LG speakers but it can't). I've watched a couple of NBA games and a couple of movies and it's all very good. No complaints using this as a TV (while sitting at my desk).
If you're looking for a 32 inch 4K IPS monitor, they really don't come much cheaper than the current price of $440. Not cheap by any means but a still a good value for a very high quality monitor.

Odd, My best buy won't price match amazon, but they would b&h
The un880-b with ergo stand has usb-c and is $650 and goes on sale for $550.
I think I excluded this one in my search in the past because of the stand, as I have a monitor arm and it supports 18 pounds (so OP's one is right on the limit)
This is 22.7 pounds, has a black housing and extra $ for the ergo stand I don't really need.
