The Secret's Out - $25 Psone screens

[bicostp]

I saw those at Circuit City about a month ago for $40, maybe they'd be cheaper now?

I've got 2 Intec screens, and I'm going to use one on my PSoneP. (No I haven't forgotten about it ) It's what I'm going to use, but I'll check the stores again in case they have any left. Last time I went to Best Buy the clerks said they didn't have any for over a year now. (They searched the inventory and everything.)

Went to Best Buy - nothin'. I'm sad because I could of bought them for $15 a couple months ago but my mom talked me out of it .

Circuit City's screens were made by Verge - these are Zenith, but basically the same screen.

[jeffslot]

maybe it's a regional thing? I picked up 8 of these screens in the last two days at Best buy. I don't live too far from scherubino - though...

[Steve-o]

Yeah I checked bestbuy today, sadly found nothing. Nor at The exchange, Circuit City, GameStop, EBGames, Radio Shack, and GoodWill. I really need one lol.

[Klefmung]

They said they never have stocked them before. >_> Way to get my hopes up!

[scherubino]

sorry klefmung. i didn't research if they were available all over the country. usually if one best buy has something they all do.

[Klefmung]

Oh well, I will just make a portable without a screen! See how much I care. >_> *cries* Oh well, I will have to find another one.

I hate my best buy. I can never find help in the store, they're never around helping people out. If you manage to find a helper, and you ask if they have something, they look at you like you're just a stupid teenager and don't know anything. They then proceed to search around the entire store without even trying to use the computer to see if they have it in stock.

The point of my post? Thanks for the tip on getting cheap screens. It remains to be seen whether I can force myself to endure having to go into the store and ask if they have these in stock, but I'll keep it in mind.

Oh, and PSone screens, Zenith screens, and Verge screens are all identical for the most part. There might be a few components missing on the Verge screen, but the layout is exactly the same, and the inputs are identical as well.

can anyone post some pics of the insides of this lcd, i want to be sure its not a lemon on the inside bofore i commit to buying any number of them

[Weebl]

Warrior_Rocker, I'm too lazy to take a picture, so here's one that's been wired by scherubino: Clicky. Scroll down to find it, you can see that it is exactly like a PSone screen.

I just looked at bestbuy.com they do not have these screens!!
Give me a link or another way to get the screen?
Are you able to use these like the official PSone lcd or is it different?

[Klefmung]

I got a $40 psone/screen combo. I think that I got the ownage deal here!

[limpport]

Is this screen still 5''?

[Gamelver]

yes, this is the EXACT SAME THING!

Same size, same inputs, same circuit board (except for an added cap....which I made use of on an N64 circuit ). Verg or Zenith, or whoever, bought the rights or whatever to use these screens for the xbox and PS2. They are now selling them, but for the most part, they're gone and now just on sale...if you find a bunch, that's great, but if not, then too bad .
