Ipad 2 front screen replacement

    Hi guys,

    Sisters Ipad 2 took a fall during the week. At the bottom right of the ipad a tiny part of the glass has cracked. Everything else is fine. It's definitely just the front glass that needs replacing. I've asked a repair centre how much would it cost to fix and they said 90€. I've looked up amazon and came to this replacement front screen which only costs £23. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Digitizer-Replacement-Adhesive-Version-Sky_Trading/dp/B008RVML60/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1363728151&sr=8-3

    Will this front screen do for the replacement? I wouldn't chance doing the repair myself but I'm thinking if I bring the screen to the repair centre that it will cost a lot less than the €90. Any advice welcomed, thanks. :)

    So basically they would be charging 60 Euro for the repair,why you think that is unreasonable?

    Not my Ipad Jack, and unfortunately it's €60 that she can't afford at the moment.:( In my opinion €60 is a lot for the repair that might come to an hours work at the most.

    Any helpful advice would be great, thanks! :)

    Read the other thread here about getting an iPad screen replaced. It's easy to fcuk up and Cathal from irepair.iie has done 50 or 60 and still finds them difficult to do.
