I have a working Garmin Edge 800 that works but the touch screen is totally shot. Anyone have a non working unit that I could use for parts?

Have you tried chatting with them online? I did re: my 800 a while back, and they sent me a RA# and refurbed it; no receipt or hassle.

Hmm…I called them a month or so ago and the best they offered me was 20% off the MSRP of a new unit. I could buy a new device from my LBS for less than that. Did you use any magic tricks or language?

I saw that, coming from China, seems like dubious quality.

i did the screen on my 1000 several times, they worked fine, may have been a touch more fragile than a garmin official screen but otherwise it was fine.

Well it's not made in the USA.

i dont think the garmin OEM screens are either, but maybe thats the point you were trying to make.

pretty sure the 800 is out of production so you likely wont get a refurb from them,the in production units have more options

I think the chat avoids a lot of back and forth. I just described the issue, the rep walked me through a few resets, determined it was not user-fixable, and issued the RA. I was just on the hook to get it to them.
