    Score!

    This is not a repair help request...yet. Just wanted to share the Craigslist find I just got.

    3, count 'em Three pristine LCD's, all with DVI, all nice Samsungs for $20! Oh yeah and throw in an APC UPS for good measure. 2 of them are in their original box, although presumed not working. No screen damage, and already can see the video on 1 with a flashlight....easy fix, while the other widescreen comes on with the menu, but won't reliably turn on each time. Haven't checked the 3rd yet....I'll keep you all posted.

    Lesson here.....watch that Craigslist!

    Nice. I'm betting at least 2, if not all 3 will work after a re-cap.
    36 Monitors, 3 TVs, 4 Laptops, 1 motherboard, 1 Printer, 1 iMac, 2 hard drive docks and one IP Phone repaired so far....

      Jeez. Around here someone wants $50 for a 22" with what appears to be bad LCD cable, 17 inch ones with missing boards for $20, this is ridiculous. And you got THREE widescreens and an UPS for $20.

      A working TV? How boring!

        This great find offsets getting scammed on the 46" 1080 LG TV with a smashed screen....I only spent $40 on that, and haven't parted it out yet but the guy said it had only one-half the screen out....right....how about it looked like it had substituted for a major league catcher!

          Sh*t happens. Anyway i managed to pick up a 19" Samsung for $50 that needed a tremendous amount of work done on it - ONE CAP. The economy here in Romania is quite different from the economy everywhere else, so it was totally worth the price. The panel itself is in perfect shape.
