Actually he got a good deal. Those screens are more expensive because they don't come bundled with ad riddled toiletware, and they often have a longer lifespan to accomodate being on for so long every day. Depends on how much it got used already though.

    Yeah I wouldn't mind being "scammed" with a commercial display.

    Do these normally come with speakers?

    I don't think so.

    Yep. You do need at least a sound bar, or a stereo system with these. But most inbuilt TV audio is pretty terrible to begin with, at least on low to mid end tvs.

    Locally every mom and pop shop with digital menus are all basic televisions. Only chains like Burger King would have proper digital signage.

    That said I think this is a commercial digital display with that brandless bezel.

    I'd love one too!!

    Yeah, as long as you don't mind a refresh rate of 5 frames a second....

    Unless it's a very weird special order display it's probably still 60hz, that way the transitions between menu screens and animations look smooth.

    I'd be surprised if anyone manufactures something slower than 30hz at all
