Cost of replacement 16" MBP screen?

[NewBench]

There's a nearly new 16" MBP for sale near me with a water damaged screen (water was spilled and there is now light bleed in the corner of the screen causing a lighter area about 10cm x 10cm).

How much would a new 16" screen assembly/panel cost if repaired by Apple? Would a third party repair invalidate warranty?

Thanks

Expensive, easily 700 canadian.

A 13 inch 2018 MacBook Pro was quoted by Apple to replace at around £600 - luckily AppleCare covered it. I expect the 16 inch would be even more.

I think the problem with third party repairs of a 16 inch will be availability of parts. I'm not sure it's doable economically.

In the US at least, a 3rd party repair can't void the warranty, but liquid spills would. How can you be certain that none of the liquid got inside the computer itself?

You'd be best off by NOT touching this one with a 10-foot pole...

This.
I wouldn't go for water damaged MacBook. It might be working fine for now and the only damage you see is a screen - you never know what may happens is 6 months from now.
