A lot repair shops have been using screen and replacement part sourced randomly for common repairs.

You’ll see one in every shopping mall, and while franchised ones won’t be much affected, smaller shop should benefit from from wider access to parts (no need to get accepted as a repair shop for instance)



Only if those parts are still affordable. People won't use these shops if their fee is 80% of a new phone.
