I am not super up to date on monitor prices but to me it seems like a good deal.
I have owned this monitor. It was great and awful. The good, it looked good. Good blacks, alright color, good viewing angles, minimal ghosting for a VA. The curve was great and really helped with the immersion when using it. 32' is perfectly fine for 1440p, ignore those that say you need 4k at 32". I have owned both, if you're gaming stick to 1440p no question.
For the bad, light bleed especially around the edges. I went through three of them before I got an acceptable one. Now, they were refurbished. However, it does seem to be a widespread issue with these(and most large screen curved monitors). And after all of that, my final one started flashing at 11 months old. Thankfully, BenQ support is A++. They offered me a replacement of either their 35" Ultrawide or their new IPS 27". I went with the IPS and I will say, the colors were so much better it wasn't even comparable.
In the end, if you get a good unit I think it is very good if you want what it offers. It's big, curved, and looks quite good. If you want the best overall looking display though, consider IPS. The only concern with IPS is that the blacks look like greys. It is what it is. However, I firmly believe you will notice the massively more vibrant colors more than that.
