You talked to ONE company. And how much do they charge for such a
repair? A few years ago new laptop LCD panels were $300 to $450. Now
many of them ... full size 15" panels for current model new laptops ...
are $60 to $80, brand new. Rebonding of the cables that connect the LCD
glass to the driver circuit boards is very rarely done. I didn't say
never, but I will say low single digit percentages (of bad panels) ever
get this "fix".

Yes, it can be done (rebonding the cables that go between the driver
circuit board within an LCD panel to the actual LCD glass), but it the
equipment required is relatively rare and exotic (a laptop with a full
size screen is not the same as a cell phone with a few square inches of
screen). The number of places that do it is small enough, and the cost
is high enough, that as a PRACTICAL matter it is normally not a
realistic option.


When I talked to a local company I was told they had to purchase used
equipment that had been used for laptop sized displays. The techs I know
that worked there told ne the same thing. So you are telling me they
are all liars?
