I'd definately return the .52 monitor.  Whether you want the .41 or .31
prolly depends on how much you want to spend and what resolution you want. 
You can get monitors with .26 dot pitch now (Seiko CM-1440, around
$600-$700 w/ 1024x768 resolution interlaced, in a 14" monitor).  Most of
the decent monitors in that resolution are .31 dot pitch, and larger
monitors in the 20" size are almost always .31 dot pitch.  I suspect you
aren't looking for anything that expensive/high-res though, but I do know
that you will be able to tell the difference between the .41 and the .31
when you see them: it will be worth your time to check out the price
differences and see if you can afford the better one if you really care
about the picture quality.
