new used pda

I bought a broken PDA off eBay a Handspring Visor Platinum to be precise. I paid $16.68 plus $6.00 shipping, so a grand total of $24.68. The glass was broken and the digitizer didn't work. The LCD and the rest of the device were fine. It is missing a plastic cover, and its sync cradle. I had just bought myself a cable to replace the cradle on my PDA anyhow ($14.99) since I was syncing to my laptop and the cradle didn't go in the laptop bag so swell, thereby giving me a spare cradle. One of my co-workers is giving me her plastic cover...it's the wrong color(clear instead of black). Cry me a river.

After receiving the PDA and giving it a looking over I went to the source for PDA parts for the repair your own type of person. (www.gethightech.com) I found it using the expedient searching Google for visor screen repair
I purchased new glass/digitizer combo for $50 plus $4.99 shipping and handling.

For those following along PDA $24.68 plus parts $54.99 equals good as new Visor Platinum for $79.67. A savings of $90.32. I think I did ok.
