This, of course, is a much smaller market than the US, and one wouldn't expect importers to bring every possible sort of monitors, especially when the the market only wants wide screens.
Must everything in your country be purchased from local retailers? Is online purchasing from sources outside its borders not possible? Anybody can import; I have bought (only small stuff) on ebay that arrives from US, Singapore, Hong Kong, and China. But the freight on something larger can amount to more than the price of the merchandise, especially because it comes by air freight. with which one-off shipments cost much more than the large lift that an importer would bring -- and he would probably bring it by sea anyway rather than air.
Additional example: I am supposed to take a buffered 325mg aspirin tablet every morning. There is only one (1), count 'em, one importer that brings aspirin, and the local Teva Pharmaceuticals (the worlds largest manufacturer of generic pharmaceuticals) doesn't make aspirin.
In the US, those using aspirin as phophylactic are usually recommended a much smaller dose, which is why stores here sell 81mg alongside 325mg, the latter for pain, the former for prophylaxis.

The importer decided, for his own convenience apparently, that he doesn't want to bother with large aspirin tablets. I now have to find a pharmacy or individual in Europe or the US to ship aspirin to me. Shameful, isn't it? Given that this is not an exotic substance.
I was recently prescribed Flomax, but found its US price prohibitive. I went online and found the made-in-Indonesia generic available delivered from a Canadian vendor for 1/5 the price. Waiting 2 weeks for delivery is inconvenient, but acceptable considering the alternative.
From googling, I see that there are a lot of pharmacies in Canada and Mexico. That makes me feel uncomfortable. A visit at a known chain (CSV) seems to show that, although it is possible to order online, one must bring one's bulk to a store of one's choice for pickup. For any of the young sprouts who have been following this discussion, this is the kind of thing that mature gentlemen talk about. Your time will also come.
