tiger tanaka Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Hi all A cat jumped off the curtain rod and smacked my notebook. The LCD screen is broken inside. Useless. I would like to replace it if possible. Still a pretty good computer. I just need a 14 inch WXGA screen to go inside the lid. Here in Chanthaburi they said I could have it done for about 10k baht, but at Pantip Plaza which made me wonder if it is worth it. However, I found the screen I need for sale in the States for 80 bucks. Does anyone have a realistic price idea for here, and if reasonable, where would I pick one up? Thanks much TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rotweiler Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Have a 15" Toshiba notebook that fell (about 20cm - but enough....). Had screen replaced at the Toshiba Repair Center in Bangkok. Fast service. Cost a lot higher than other suggestions in this thread - just over 11,000 Baht. Info: Toshiba IT Product Service Center, 0-2513-1285 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger tanaka Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Just wanted to say that for those who may have a similar problem I ended up ordering a new screen through Ebay for 68 dollars. I got the screen, a new keyboard and five day shipping to Chanthaburi from NY for 98 US dollars. The screen is perfect, a quality LG replacement (the previous was made by Phillips I noticed). Anyway, seemed cheaper and saved me a trip to BKK, which is always good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaratpan Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) I had the screen problem with my Toshiba. Brought it to the Toshiba shop and was advised that: 1. it is not included in the guarantee and 2. to get a no-brand screen instead of a genuine one (twice as expensive). So I went to a decent pc shop in Central Rama 3. They did it in an hour for Bt6,500. Edited February 12, 2009 by Jaratpan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcom Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Notebook Integration is a top place in Pantip. 3rd floor. Toward the rear of the building. (Klong side not Petchburi side). Approx in the middle. The girl in there speaks excellent English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
