I recently found a 55in LG 55LF5700 TV, took it home and quickly realized why it was thrown out. The LCD panel is completely cracked, but I don't want to get rid of it yet. I would like to repair it but I can't find a place that sales the EAJ60288401 TFT panel online. Can anyone recommend a great place for TV repairs in Vegas or a place that I can find the panel for cheap?

A new replacement panel would cost you more than a new TV.
Manufacturers don't stock them even for warranty repairs. They usually just send out refurbished or B stock TVs. Out of warranty it's your fault and your problem.
If you could find the same model set used with a different problem that would be the only option. Not likely.

Getting in screens shipped is almost impossible in large sizes because they break so easily. Even not long ago shipping of regular 40 inch TVs would ship with transport warranties and arrive broke shipped from the factory to house and that was good band name construction such as Sony. I learned to inspect before the shipper left so it couldn't put the blame on me. Also faster turn around by not having to schedule a pickup later. I can't remember if I cross shipped them???
