Default Help to replace LCD on Gateway FPD1800 FPD 1800 FPD-1800 made by LG Electronics (Goldstar?)

A friend of mine bought this 18" monitor on EBAY.

Looks like someone punched it, obvious damage to
the liquid crystals.


He's asked me to bail him out of his blunder if I can.

Anyone know where I can order the TFT for this bugger,
hopefully at a reasonable price?

Thanks in advance
DM

I seriously doubt replacing the TFT will be cost effective, it will be
horrendously expensive and virtually as expensive as a whole new monitor. If
it arrived broken, I'd take the matter up with the seller and/or the
courier.

The LCD panel is virtually the entire cost of the monitor and generally
isn't even offered for sale separately. I hope that thing was insured, not a
chance it's worth repairing.
