Maybe I haven't been looking in the right places, but I haven't seen
even the high-end, "studio quality" ones for sale anywhere. The market
seems to be dried up all across the spectrum.
From what I've seen, the only CRT monitors that can still reliably be
purchased new are a few middle-of-the-road models from NEC and
Viewsonic, and some cheaper, off-brand ones.
Some online catalogs still have listings for CRTs by Philips and
Samsung, but I'd be surprised if those were actually still available
if you tried placing an order for them.
