He then locates the LCD screen model number on the back and searches for it on LaptopScreen.com. To make sure he is ordering the correct screen, Customer B compares the LCD screen he has with the picture on our website.<\/p>\n<p>Now, which customer do you think is more likely to get the correct screen to fit their laptop?<\/p>\n<p>In <a href=\"http:\/\/www.laptopscreen.com\/blog\/why-do-we-sometimes-send-a-screen-with-a-model-number-different-from-original\/\">this recent post<\/a> we have explained&nbsp;why do we sometimes send a screen with the model number different from original.
