need someone with tv repair connection

[ticklemedaly]

I'm looking for a new display panel for a broken plasma panasonic. Anyone have a connection for Panasonic parts? Let me know.

Thanks

I have a buddy who works at Best Buy repairing stuff like this, I can ask him if that's a possibility.

Have you been by there recently? He's no longer in business as of a couple months ago.

I noticed that when I was looking for local places for parts. The website says it is closed. Sad to see such a historic business close after all these years. I figured it was due to retirement and the economy.

I remember reading it was due to the high cost of replacement parts compared to just buying a brand new TV.

I can see that. TV's have come down so much in price it is difficult to provide a service for expensive parts.

That is likely the cause. When we looked into getting my dads DLP fixed he just said with the Make/Model we had and the common issues it wasn't worth fixing.
