i'm looking to purchase and LCD that I can gut just for the LCD and the controler. anyone know where i can buy them with like missing cases or stuff like that? i've already looked here http://www.surplusvillage.com/

perhaps there is a place where you can buy just the LCD....

allelectronics
partsexpress
mcmelectronics
are some places that i deal with regularly that have fairly cheap prices.

now that i think about it... i have an old laptop(thinkpad 350c) i'd sell for $30. i don't know what you're wanting to do with it, but the screen's only 9".

thx but no thx, i'm wanting 17"

you might try samsclub floor demos they had a nec 1765lcd for $230. with moderate damage.

that is the exact one i'm trying to get.....how do you know that they have this? could you pick it up for me.....i'm not a sam's club member. also, what does moderate damage entail...?

^_^ me

sorry I live to far away. It would be worth it for you to become a member.
Every sams club that sold this model has or had a demo. they are clearince priced down, then if they are damaged they are less. very few have damaged screens becouse they monitor has a hard glossy cover, but that is not imposible to damage, but if you take it off its as good as new, lcd wise.

anyone want to pick me up one of these? it would be greatly appreciated.

I have a 17" widescreen xga format lcd panel that was part of a suplus lot somewhere. There are several controllers out there to control this widescreen 17" lcd panel, ranging in price.

I'd sell the lcd by itself for $85.

Later

good luck finding a controller for under $100

You'd be better off just buying a normal LCD monitor

can i get some more specs on this thing?

who are you AC?
