    Want to know where are the best websites to buy LCDs in mainly USA/China/India, having the exact model number, (and for good prices?), and not just 'compatible' LCDs as most sellers on ebay say.

    We can keep this thread for ANY seller around the world, maybe it could help someone else in the same position.

    Ebay. Type in the model number of the panel you are looking for and you are going to find listings for that exact panel.

    It's not like that. At least not in my experience. Some sellers have the exact P/N for some displays, but compatible for the rest, other resellers are the other way around. Then there are quite a handful that sell the lowest quality POS and not even with the correct resolution! So, the only way is - Ask prior purchase for the exact P/N.

    I've bought a few screens on Ebay and it always worked out finding the exact one I was looking for. Not all matches are going to be good, but you will find what you are looking for.
