YMMV (single open-box item, sold out when gone)
Micro Center Santa Clara has one open box Acer Nitro XV272K V5bmiiprx (model UM.HX2AA.501, Micro Center SKU 812537) for $195.96. It sits in Aisle 41 (Monitors) and is listed as open box ID 23439. The product page labels this unit INCOMPLETE: AS IS and notes that the remaining manufacturer warranty applies. Open box is in store only at the Santa Clara store.
Price check: the same monitor is $279.99 new at Micro Center (list price $419.99) and $313 and up new at the other retailers I checked. Acer certified refurbished units of this model have sold for $227.49, so this open box price is about 30 percent under the new street price and below the refurb price too.
Inspect it in the store before you pay:
- INCOMPLETE means parts may be missing. A new box includes the monitor, stand, HDMI cable, power cord and the Acer Smart Dial. Confirm the stand and power cord are included at a minimum.
- Power it on and check for dead or stuck pixels, backlight bleed and any screen damage.
- The product page says this monitor may be returned within 30 days of purchase. Confirm the return terms for an open box AS IS unit at the register before buying.

- Ports: 2 x HDMI 2.1, 1 x DisplayPort 1.4, headphone jack

- Acer warranty is 3 years parts and labor on a new unit, and the remaining warranty applies to this one
Owner reviews on the Micro Center page average 4.3 stars across 15 reviews. A few owners mention a wobbly stand and middling viewing angles, which is another reason to check that all of the stand hardware is in the box.
