This deal for the Samsung 57" Odyssey Neo G9 is a massive price drop for one of the most powerful gaming monitors on the market. Since you found an Open-Box unit in Good condition at your local Eagan store, this post focuses on the significant savings over the $2,499.99 MSRP.
Best Buy has the Samsung 57" Odyssey Neo G9 (LS57CG952NNXZA) available in Open-Box condition starting as low as $858.99 (Condition: Good).
This is a YMMV (Your Mileage May Vary) deal as inventory depends on your local store's stock. For reference, I spotted this price at the Eagan, MN location.

The Samsung 57 inch Odyssey Neo G9 stands out as a massive productivity and gaming display with huge screen real estate and sharp image quality. It handles demanding setups well, including a 3090 Ti desktop, an M4 MacBook over HDMI, and even a 9060 XT at 1440p and 120Hz for games. The open box units have arrived in great or excellent condition, though some were missing the power cable or back cable cover. The main practical hurdle is transport, since the box is enormous and may require an SUV or truck. It also has no speakers and can show occasional white line or glitchy box artifacts that usually clear with a power cycle or input change.
Open-box units can arrive missing minor accessories while still working well for setup and daily use.
The monitor can deliver strong productivity performance when driven by a 3090 Ti desktop and an M4 MacBook over HDMI at full resolution.
The screen provides expansive real estate that supports multi-device setups and long daily work sessions.
The monitor can be driven beyond basic desktop use when paired with a sufficiently strong GPU.
The open-box packaging is extremely bulky, making car pickup difficult and sometimes requiring removing the monitor from the box.
Some open-box units may be missing the power cable, which requires sourcing the missing part before use.
A known Samsung glitch can cause random white lines or glitchy boxes that are hard to capture and may require power cycling or input switching to clear.
Gaming performance may require reducing settings or effects, since a midrange GPU may not sustain 240Hz at high fidelity.

Just FYI, it does not have any speakers. I didn't realize that until after I bought it.
