Where can you sell broken screens? An honest comparison (2026)
Do you repair devices and have broken screens left over? You can sell them in several places across Europe. We compare the buyers honestly, including ourselves, because FIXNOW buys broken screens too. That way you choose with open eyes.
What should you look for in a buyer?
- 1
Open prices. Do you see the price per model and grade before you ship, or only after registration? A public price list makes comparison possible.
- 2
Clear grading. What exactly do grade A or B mean, and what gets rejected? Vague criteria are the biggest source of disputes afterwards.
- 3
Minimum quantities. Some buyers only start from 50 or even 100 screens. For a small repair shop that is a high threshold.
- 4
Payout. By bank or PayPal, and how fast after testing? Waiting longer than a week is not a good sign in this market.
- 5
Rejected screens. What happens to rejected screens: return or recycling, and who decides?

What if you are in Belgium or the Netherlands?
In Flanders and Wallonia there is currently no other buyer that purchases screens by the batch with a public price list. Several Dutch buyers stopped or were taken over in 2026. In practice it comes down to this: either you ship to France or Sweden (mind the minimums), or you sell close to home. FIXNOW tests and pays in Belgium, without a minimum. You register your batch online and we arrange shipping, pickup or drop-off together.
Frequently asked questions
Why are most buyers’ prices not online?
Because prices fluctuate with the demand for refurbished parts. We deliberately choose a public list that we update regularly, so you can compare before you ship anything.
Can I have my batch estimated by several buyers?
Yes, and we even recommend it. Do compare the total payout of your actual batch (after grading), not just the highest grade-A price on a banner.
What is my batch worth?
Use our batch calculator on the LCD buyback page or check the current buyback prices per model.
