Ian -
Those are horrid, except for testing, I wouldn't use them at all.
You'd do a service to the list if you posted the seller so we can also
avoid!
I'd suggest you don't post negative feedback on ebay until the seller
makes good. Once you post feedback the seller has far less incentive
to settle. I've also found that sellers try and pressure you to
resolve the case immediately - tell them that if they post a refund
you can resolve the case, otherwise you'll need to receive your
replacement parts first.
I purchased 10pc TIL311 from Adeleparts2010, they were obviously used
and a few were damaged. Like yours, there weren't like the posted
picture.
A second batch from hkjtsource were fresh, clean stock and well packed
- highly recommended source.

Hello all,
I'm in the millde of building the S100-IDE board to drop in to my
NorthStar Horizon. The final pieces showed up today, but there's a
bit of a problem, and wondering if anyone else has seen this?
I acquired 10 TIL311 displays from an eBay seller but when they
arrived, they have an obvious gouge on the display surface that has
been filled in with a black marker. All 10 of them. To me it looks
like factory seconds that were marked with a gouge.
Here's a picture:

Has anyone else seen these displays like this? I've filed a dispute
with the seller because they are nothing like the condition of the
picture in the auction. I'll give them a go, but esthetically
they're terrible.
Any suggestions on an inexpensive source for these displays in
non-gouged-and-filled-in state?
Thanks.
Ian
