Cracked my E4200 LCD...where to get an LCD? Will Dell give me a reduced price if I order a replacement LCD?

I purchased my refurbished Latitude E4200 from the Dell Outlet about 2 months ago. I just dropped the E4200 today. Damage is a small (dime sized) black mark in the LCD. The Black mark is in the uper left corner of LCD and some small 'spider like' cracks around the black mark. I am bummed...but still using the LCD.. It is not too bad. I could likely live with this...seeing as mark is in upper left corner and so far LCD appears fine otherwise...
.
My display is 12.1" WGXA. I get the feeling that a new 12.1" LCD will be $300 or more...I only paid about $700 from the Outlet (used a 20% off latitude coupon)...so, dont really feel like paying $300 plus for a new LCD.

I did not purchase any extended warranty or Complete Care (bad mistake, I realize now). My warranty is the standard 3 years (with no accidental coverage). Is there any chance Dell might give me a decent price on a replacement LCD? Anything else Dell might do for me? Any other advice?

 

An E4200 costs $300 on eBay, and there really aren't many available. I think Dell might actually charge you less; you should call 'em up and see. You might also want to try a local repair shop; they might be able to get the part for less.

 

Just PMed you. on what to do.

 

Call Dell. They may let you purchase the accident coverage which covers the LCD replacement.

 

I pmed him a cheaper way to get his screen fixed by dell for free.
