Is their a diff. when buying a "matched" pair of monitors or buying them diff. times

I see some places where they have a "matched" pair of monitors and I was wondering if they they really do "match" them. I was looking at the mackie HR824's. I might be able to get them cheaper buying seperate and was wondering if their was a diffrence. I buy drum sticks all the time when they say "sonic matched" and sometimes they their way diffrent. Is it just a marketing gimmik?
 
Any monitor worth its' weight in poop will come with a personalized & serialed frequency response chart to THAT particular box. While all monitors of a given model should fall within a particular variance in this range, matched pairs (just like microphones) are kept within a VERY slight variation.

Exactly HOW slight is up to the manufacturer...
