I see a couple of people have finally noticed that there is a huge difference between European and North American systems. Some options just don't  cross the Atlantic well (if at all). This really needs to be taken into consideration!

The old Commodore Amiga monitors, such as the 1080 and 1084, are still available used in the U.S..
These work quite well on A1000 and A500 computers with no adapters - just plug them in.
I still use a A1000 with a 1080 Amiga monitor that has great color display. It is on the small side at about 15".
I just picked a 1080 up at a flea market for $15.00. These can also work great for older Commodore C-128 systems.
