... #ProTip:

* Sellers (cough #Apple cough) - make it easy for buyers to buy/replace parts
* Buyers - research how easy sellers make it to buy/replace parts before investing, otherwise your next bill could be €1000 in 5 years time.
* Recycle old parts
* It's empowering to learn/know how to repair your own electronics
* Electronics devices should last >5 years
