Computer Technician and Computer Parts

[dirtydancer14]

Hey all,

Does anyone know a good shop to purchase replacement parts for a laptop (specifically a screen for an HP)?
Also would these places pop it in for me for a reasonable rate?
And just for reference what is a "reasonable" for that type of service?

Thanks and Happy Holidays!

By ''pop it in'' I take it it means you have a laptop, if so,unless it's a 5k machine, you're better off buying a new one, as any laptop screens cost upwards of a thousand dollars :/

I believe it's only effective if you buy the parts and do the labour yourself. As a simple reference, I got my laptop CPU fan cleaned a year ago and I ended up paying $80. "Popping-in" a screen will take more time and is slightly more complicated plus there's the cost of the screen itself.

Best bet would be to sell it as is (it can be used with a monitor) and hit the sales this week for a new one.
