macbook screen damage [pictures]

[sal]

Let's play a guessing game:
1) how do you think this screen got damaged
2) how much will apple tell me it will cost to repair it

 

[NT1440]

looks like something with a dull point hit it right in the center (or it got closed on something like that).

1. A blonde saw a soccer ball on the screen and tried to kick it.
2. $500?

accident while traveling with it; $750.
what do i win?!

 

[molala]

i'm going with blunt object as well.

just had my blackbook screen replaced (under applecare, so it was covered), the receipt said £220 for the screen and about £60 for labor.

closing the lid maybe?. -whats my prize

Which Macbook is it? I've got a core duo, early 2006 I think? that got water spilled on it. $810.00 to repair it, so it sits as I could get a refurb white one for that price. I THINK the screen is fine, not sure what is wrong with the rest. Logic board probably.

Either...

1) $600 and you jabbed it really hard

or

2) $0 as its a clever picture 😀

1. Someone was playing zorro in your house
2. More than the MacBook is worth
I'd pop off the screen and use it as a desktopbook. That, or sell it to someone who wants to use it as a desktopbook

How long do we have to wait for the answer?

1. I don't really care to know.
2. $229. http://www.missionrepair.com/13_Mac...&match_type=&gclid=CJC7_rr0upkCFRJxxwodhAty6w

Damn.


Either you are screwed or you got a new screen... judging by your comments i would guess it was the aforementioned.

Guess you could show this to the guy in the thread wondering if he should buy applecare or not...😀

1. the lid was closed and something dropped on it from the top
2. go with missionrepair - their prices are fair and they do good work

Applecare would not help in this situation as it looks like user inflicted damage.

 

[rakkathon]

Someone sat on it while the lid was closed.

$300 DIY.

$600 to have Apple fix it.

 

[Nocturnal22]

you sat on it 900 bux cash money
