Do any of you know where I can get an AFX2+ for about $50? If so I can sell someone my messed up calc. Also, I have until May 16 to reply or Casio will keep my calc. $56.66 for one line of pixels, maybe thats what the mean by the unexpected extra.
How much is AFX2 repair worth?

I just got the estimate back for my AFX2. It will cost $56.66 for repair, S&H, and tax. I only paid $50 for it. Do any of you know where I can get an AFX2+ for about $50?

I think it's not worth to let it repair if everything works fine and only one row of pixels is damaged.

I'm not really sure where you found an AFX for $50, so I would say if the one line of pixels are really THAT important to you, then go for it. I got my calc for over 100, and I haven't seen them go for much under that. But ultimately I would agree with Pixter, one line of pixels wouldn't be worth that price for me.

Yes buy one from ebay if you are going get another - I'd have to fork out $200US for one here in NZ, but got mine brand new for only $35US!!
And had to pay about the same to ship it over...
I've had problems like that with various LCD panels - most of the time the unit itsn't actually damaged, but there's a poor contact on the LCD data strip socket. You should be able to fix it yourself with some careful tampering

Buy one FX 1.0 or one FX 1.0 Plus, they have the same AFX 2.0 and AFX 2.0 Plus software; see the related topic about it for more info?
