I quoted a customer to repair a Panasonic YSUS board they sent me in a Jiffy bag without asking me first (don't normally do tellies at work these days!). I based the quote on getting MOSFETs from Toshiba, about a month delivery. They sent me a stuffy email saying they could get an entire repair kit from Amazon for me if I wanted it, in 2 days. So I agreed, so long as they undertook any risk re - quality of the parts.

The bits arrived and I fitted them, I never had the luxury of being told if the TV worked but was quite surprised that Amazon did that sort of thing.
