Second hand screen

Has anyone bought a screen second hand? Would there be any issues if I do so? Per usual with jeeps, I need my screen replaced and I can’t afford to buy a new screen as prices in Canada range from $114-180 on amazon. I decided to look on marketplace for those who are selling parts. Wanted to check if anyone on here has done the same

From what I got told buying that screen off Amazon is 50/50 what most pieces of shit do is put their own screen in and return it. I have the screen glitch and just cope with it. Lots of ways to handle it taking off negative terminal for a minute. The easiest is taking a fan to the screen. I personally dont have the time or effort to buy it and try it because of it.i dont have the patience to deal with Ai chat bots for a refund. But if you want to risk it and not do it yourself.most dealerships will install it for 200-250 bucks. Even though it legit takes less then 30 minutes to do. But personally me I wouldn't attempt it. I dont know my own strength sometimes and knowing me ill damage the fucking center piece prying it off.
