I always thought they were throw away if they failed. No user fixable stuff in them. I was wrong. If you have just some basic knowledge like which way to turn a screwdriver and can unsnap a few plastic connectors anyone can fix a lot of the problems on them. They probably cost more to have one sent out to be repaired than a new one would cost.
Like if your screen won't light up(A very common problem), that can be a fairly easy fix. Usually one or two boards for the back light have failed. About a half hour job to replace them. No big deal.
Just learned this recently. Had to repair one. You can get a lot of free advice online too. For troubleshooting and such.
Something to keep in mind.
