What I know
1) Has a bend in the upper left hand corner.
a) Was told no big deal and to use some duck bill pliers and a towel to straighten out.
2) Has a pretty good blemish where the Hyper Space button resides
a) Was told no big deal and other received the same.
3) Has pretty good bleed where the left and right turn buttons reside.
a) again was told no big deal please re read his for sale thread.
b) Not sure if the buttons will cover the bleed. It will certainly be close.
4) Has an X on the back of the new panel.
a) Was told this is where the screen guy changed the screen?
b) Wtf?
5) Was told to ship panel back at my expense and he would make a refund.
a) Wtf? You don't stand behind your product? I didn't ask you to ship me this sorry b grade panel after almost a year. I want an a grade like you shipped the rest of the people. Wtf should I eat shipping on your mistake.
6) The panel has other imperfections in the screening as well.
a) You can see the white lines that were not covered completely in the second process.
b) There is a second smaller blemish in the blue panel under the rotate buttons.
So now you as a buyer no all the facts. You can also see the panel before you buy. Now you can make an offer on the panel if you wish with no hidden agenda.
Merry Christmas
