Seeking broken camera with working 2.7" LCD screen

    Hi guys, months ago my digital camera broke. It wasn't down to my own negligence but I think the bag it was in fell over or was stepped on by someone else so the LCD screen got scratched. The camera itself works fine and will take pictures on the memory card but you can't see anything on the screen; just a white screen with a big black scratch mark down it. Obviously a digital camera without a working screen isn't very useful to anyone. It did break months ago but it IS a good camera and I would love to get it in working condition again. I'm seeking an old faulty digital camera (preferably Olympus) with perhaps a broken lens for instance, BUT a working LCD screen. I am willing to pay for your old camera but within reason!! :) Please please if you have a broken camera lying around which fits the bill, let me know! :D

    The camera I have is an Olympus X-44 (14 megapixels, 5x optical zoom) http://reviews.argos.co.uk/1493-en_gb/5594119/reviews.htm

    You can check what size your screen is by googling the model no :)

    You can get the screen on ebay for €13.41 delivered...
    Here

    The installation process is not user-friendly, please seek a certified technician or professional if you are unfamiliar with the process to avoid unintended damage to your camera. Any laptop repair place should be able to do it for you, but check what they would charge first.

    Just be aware though that it would be coming from the US, so it might incur 23% customs duty on the total price including postage and a €6 euro handling fee from An Post. :mad:

    Hope that helps.

    Think duty only applies to purchases over $22

    Thank you so much for your help. ;) I checked out the link & then accidentally went to 'Commit to buy' so now I'm guessing I'm buying it..Says it'll come to €13 and a bit over altogether with P&P which is pretty decent..:D
