Wonder if they replace the screen themselves or sell such devices to another company who does. Glad I kept it rather than tossing.

Maybe they'll just take out the working parts for people who want to have a K3 repaired out of warranty, or they build working K3's out of parts of several broken ones and resell them as refurbished.... or something.
I can't imagine how Amazon can make up an $30 price for a broken K3 that is years old.
