Also wanted to add, even the best Eizos will likely have some tint issue. It's the technology (or more the manufacturing) itself. IPS panels often have the green to pink tint from left to right, and I often see the yellow (sometimes blue) tint of basic consumer TFTs and others. Just about every monitor, regardless of cost has it to a degree, but it's usually subtle enough that 99% of people never see it (and often contrast is so high the effect is blown out). I always see it though. If you want to, just put up a solid white field and step back. Try lights on and off. Also try a medium tone grey. That also brings it out.
To further clarify, this is not a calibration or colour issue, it's the panel itself and/or the backlighting. When we say tint in this regard, it's not the whole screen, its like a gradient, often worse in one portion of the screen than others, so not fixable with just calibration.
Except for the finest of photo editing, it's rarely that large an issue to affect work.
