Hey all. I smashed my laptop forever ago but it still functions and i'm thinking of buying a new screen for it to make it usable again. Is their anything I need to know about replacing laptop screens? I have it torn out already and I just ran the Model number off the back of the screen through ebay and a ton of options popped up. Should it be compatible as long as its the same model number?
Should I be wary of eBay sellers and try to find a web store that specializes in this sorta thing? The LCD panels for the aspire one i have seem to be crazy cheap one eBay is it to good to be true? ($30-$40 and around $15 shipping seems to be the norm.)
I'm mainly looking for tips on buying a new screen as I've never purchased parts that weren't "off the shelf." Anything I should keep in mind?
Thanks guys.
Edit: On second look, prices on ebay are all over the board ranging from 20-30, 40-50 and some in the 80-100 price range. They all seem to be the same model though, I'm so confused.
