If you can buy a third party warranty from MC for cheap that will cover burn-in, it could be worth it.

It makes more sense to literally wait for a sale from Dell and buy directly. As I mentioned, if you were able to stack the 15% coupon + 30% rewards back from CapitalOne, it would have been cheaper than this "deal" while having a warranty. I would personally take the 15% just for the piece of mind for three years.
Also, this isn't any OLED. This is the first generation QD-OLED. A second generation is already out and is advertised to be 2x as durable. The first gen has barely been out for a year and yet a new panel is 2x as durable?
But hey, it's your money. Go for it, lol

Right now, without special access, you can get the DWF for $1000 + 10% cashback via EB (normally cashback is around 2%).
The panels are gorgeous, WHEN THEY WORK but honestly, It seems like im probably going to be making heavy use of the 3 year warranty and im starting to wonder if I screwed up in selling my super reliable AW3420DW.
I cant recommend this monitor to anyone. And I guarantee if you buy an open box unit it will have some kind of problem. Im sure Dell will take the one with the stuck pixel and sell it as a refurb, and someone might be 100% OK with that. But im not ok with a $1300 monitor coming with defects.
