Posted: 01 Apr 2019 01:38 PM PDT Just writing because of an experience I had with ordering a part from Lenovo. Normally I go to ebay/amazon/oem parts sites for parts, outside of HP Parts Surfer when I can, because with them I know what I am getting. I was surprised to see Lenovo has a parts ordering site. I don't know if it is new or I just didn't come across it before. https://support.lenovo.com/us/en/partslookup Well I had a client who had ruined their keyboard, and surprisingly enough, I looked up the part at Lenovo, and they had it in stock, for a reasonable price too. So I ordered it up, especially since most of those after market laptop keyboards you can get are pure crap with really poor quality keys. So I get the part in. Comes in a nice sealed box, inside nice sealed taped up static bag. Then I notice on the bag label it says "Refurbished Part". So, not the end of the world (even though it was not indicated at all during the entire purchase process that it was a refurb), still better than a knock off part. Then I open the static bag and take the keyboard out. It was a direct pull from a system. Multiple keys were covered in food/spit spatter. The thing was dirty and gross. At least half the keys had very high sheen on them from heavy use wearing off the top coating on the plastic. So beware of any parts from them that aren't internal. If you order any keyboards, screens, housing, etc.. you don't know what you are getting until it arrives. [link] [comments] |
