    I'm looking to upgrade my panel and came across this website.
    I've done a CONSIDERABLE amount of research, and the best place, prior to the discovery, to get the panel I wanted was ebay.

    However, this is better than any seller on ebay by light years.
    They sell the lcd I want at a fraction of the price of the ones on ebay, and the company is located in U.S., not in China!!
    I read the terms on return policy and warranty, and it can't be matched either. (accident damage warranty also provided very cheaply)

    I'm in love with this website, but I feel like this is just too good to be true.
    Therefore, I decided get some feedback from those who've used the website before I pull the trigger.
    When I googled for review, there are hundreds of them, and again, it's just too good to be true. I'm not sure if it's real or a just HUGE HUGE set up.

    If anybody has an experience with this website, please share!
    I'm so ready to go ahead and make the purchase.

    Thanks

    Do you know what model number screen and mfg is currently installed in your laptop? You can't start upgrading until you know what you're working with and it's recommended to find a disassembly/assembly manual for your laptop before you start taking the screen or the laptop apart. It would be nice if you can share the model number of the laptop. You could find tons of information right here on NBR about laptop screen upgrades. The place you buy it from don't matter, just make sure their return policy is good. Pick a screen you already know it will not fit your laptop but looks close and ask them if it'll fit. Don't buy it yet! I know: not nice but necessary. See how fast they respond too then you should have a pretty good idea about their site.

    This is a website from UK that rates US retailers. They have:

    newegg.com rated as good at 7.8
    amazon.com as good at 8.9
    bestbuy.com rated as acceptable at 6.2

    and ebay.com rated as good at 7.3? Who rates ebay it's a community of sellers either people or stores? It's a mix-up. What exactly are you rating?

    Even their own website trustpilot . co . uk rates at 7.0 so they don't have perfection written anywhere near them.

    It's totally useless, give you an idea, wrong or right idea it's up to you to decide, a lot of websites post their own fake positive feedbacks because they can. It's a waste of time reading feedbacks from them.

    PS: I still have no idea about lcds4less.com. They could be fake or not, no idea. How did you run into them anyways?

    Did you actually read anything on that link I put? :rolleyes:

    lcds4less.com/co.uk is the same company. They are customer reviews and the company has even replied to some of them.

    Anyway, make of it what you want.

    sorry for the "unnecessary commentray [sic]," 2.0™. if dolce.vita was also curious i'm not sure that it was unnecessary, but next time just delete both my posts. i'm pretty familiar with that.

    anyway, see this post of mine. successful lcdsforless.com story.
