Hi Jennifer, I not sure if this helps, but I have seen some iMac screen panels for sale on eBay and could understand why someone would be selling these (just the screen panels). Perhaps, it may be cheaper to buy the panel from eBay and get the wizard technician to replace it. I think a replacement panel from Apple may be exorbitant.
