Somehow my 2012 refurbished rMBP came to get a small dent in the bottom right of the lid casing, and now the far right side of the screen is having black/purple/green bars. There is no physical damage to the screen or the glass as I can tell. Anywhew, obviously there is a repair needed and the warranty won't cover it. My questions are: Would a new screen be necessary? How much would the new screen cost? Would new casing be necessary? How much would the new casing cost?

I read somewhere that the retina screens are around $500, but I have not had confirmation. The reason I ask is, I don't have a lot of money right now and I would like to know how much this is going to cost me before I get a quote.
