I'm considering buying some studio monitors. I'd like

Frequency range means nothing, you could say it does 1hz-30000hz and you wouldn't be wrong, it's the frequency RESPONSE graph you want to look at, where the low end drops off, where the high end drops off, and how flat things are in between those points.
But looking at graphs isn't the way to shop if you don't know what you want, look up what people like (Yamaha HSwhatevers, KRK rokit whatevers, mackie MRwhatevers, just look some things up) and then try to narrow things down after that.
I have mackie MR5 mk2s, they're good, great sound but the low end rolls off quick and at the highest volumes (like playing for a house party) the frequencies seem to crowd each other, probably due to being only 5inch cones; I'd recommend a 6 or even 8 inch pair of monitors so you have ample lows. I'd recommend big monitors over small monitors + subwoofer ANY day.
Get a good DAC or audio interface or USB mixer, and those triangular-base-shaped monitor stands for $70 a pair

is it a good deal?

Those are passive (so you'd need an amp), only 5 inches, I'm assuming only 50w a speaker, and pretty overpriced.
For $200 you could probably get old models of any of the three (powered) monitors I listed

Go to guitar center or even RadioShack or something at least, Walmart does not have what you're looking for

Actually no one sells them in my tri-county area. The picture came from my father in texas. He's christmas shopping and hit me up before I had a chance to research what I really wanted.
