So I made a thread a while ago about where to buy a laptop replacement screen. I went with screencountry.com which sold my screen for 89$ (The rest of the companies sold for 270-340). I ordered, it got here the next day even though I didn't order overnight. (Literally ordered at 2pm Tue, it was here at 11:30am Wed).

So anyway, I found a walkthrough for replacing a LCD display and followed it perfectly.


My old screen

And the one from screecountry

So a 120$ after shipping (They also shipped it in 5 separate cardboard boxes all separated by bubble wrap and with a UPS hardbox).

First screen I ever replaced and awsome review of screencountry.com


Also, heres a gingerbread penis I made on christmas... NSFW

this may sound like a stupid question, but why 5 seperate cardboard boxes?

(i've never had to do this) it seems like there would be only 1 piece.

To protect the Laptop screen in shipping, You only get the screen itself.
 
I'm still wondering if 5 boxes is that necessary?

Whatever, having spare boxes around the house is always nice.

How did the screen break like that? Did you try to hump it too hard?

someone probably tripped over the cable and sent it crashing to the floor followed by an accidental stepping on the screen.
