Which screens are not eligible for standard buyback?
To stay transparent, the website clearly separates refurbishable screens from modules that do not belong in the standard intake flow.
A fully dead panel falls outside the standard buyback flow.
The site avoids promising value where reuse potential is gone.
This rule protects intake quality, estimate accuracy and sender trust.
Usually excluded cases
Excluded cases are the ones where the module has lost its technical reuse value or can no longer support a meaningful refurbishment cycle.
Completely black screen with no usable image.
LCD/OLED layer fully dead or severely damaged.
Module that will not power on or cannot be tested reliably.
Why we do not present those lots as standard-value lots
Because honest guidance is more useful than vague pricing promises. The site should clearly state what carries buyback value and what does not.
How to explain it internally
A simple wording works best: we buy broken-glass or worn screens when the display layer is still functional; fully dead panels fall outside the standard Broken LCD flow.
