Best wholesale supplier for MacBook Air screens?
Hey everyone, I'm looking for recommendations on the best wholesale supplier for MacBook Air screens. I've been sourcing screens from a couple of vendors, but I've had mixed experiences with both quality and RMA processes. Some screens have come in with dead pixels or other defects, and returning them has been a hassle. I typically order in bulk to save costs, but I need to ensure that the quality is reliable since these screens are a common repair for us. If anyone has a supplier they trust, along with pricing info and their RMA process, I'd really appreciate it!

I highly recommend checking out iFixit. They have a solid reputation for quality, and I've found their MacBook Air screens to be very reliable. The pricing is decent, usually around $100 per screen when you buy in bulk, and their RMA process is straightforward. I've only had to return a couple of screens over the years, and they handled it promptly. Plus, their repair guides are a great bonus for our team. Overall, it's been a game-changer for us.
I've had mixed results with a supplier called Wholesale Gadget Parts. Their prices are attractive, sometimes even lower than iFixit, but the quality can be hit or miss. I would say around 70% of the screens I get have been fine, but the other 30% had issues. Their RMA process is also a bit slow, which can be frustrating when you need replacements quickly. If you decide to go this route, just be prepared for some quality control checks on your end.
