They are expensive. Having the IR touch working well after is tricky.
Also add shipping and often duty/tax depending on your location. I've seen them on ebay.
There also might be a calibration value associated with eink screens, thus a non-matching replacement might not do the shades properly?
It might be better value to buy a Kobo Libre, which cost me €20 less than my original H2O.
Or an entire working Kobo secondhand. Any books on the internal SD card might be readable on a PC.
