Amiga 1960 Monitor

Can someone please tell me why this Commodore 1960 monitor is going for so much?  I wanted to buy it but Wow!!!

Yeah, unlike the A1000 I'm trying to get I stopped bidding on this at about $70US and it's just kept going since.  The only think I see kinda odd is the other 2 bidders have a feedback of 1 and 0.

Couldn't people just use the 1084 series of monitors?  Also what about the old NEC 3D?

Well, since I'm about to own an A4000 and an A1200 what monitor(s) should I use?  Or what monitor/monitor interface should I use?  I want to be able to use old software, (yes games too), as well as use new stuff and use higher resolutions.

Also does anyone know of any modern monitors that can use the full range that the Amiga uses?  What type of RGB to VGA adapter should I use?

[drewz21]

Please be patient with my ignorance on this but are you saying that with an external scandoubler, like the one at Softhut or AmigaKit, I can use a standard monitor with my Amiga and use all display resolutions?

Thanks for your help.
