Thinkpad replacement screen & charger?

I purchased a factory second X1 Carbon from Greys Online the other day and today it arrived. The 2 things wrong with it were no charger and a broken screen.

I need to purchase a screen and a charger for this laptop, where would you recommend?

I'd rather genuine parts but don't want to be paying a lot…

  • Charger can be got from lenovo direct, or ebay.
    The stock charger for the carbons is quite bulky in comparison to the laptop so I'd get the slimline/travel charger (i think thats what it's called).

    RE; Screen. Touch or non-touch?

    • The screen is non-touch, it is 1600x900, can I just use a standard 14.0" LED screen?

      Not worried about how long it takes.

  • Bump sort of thing.
    Should I get a third party charger? Would it be safe?
    Also, with the screen, where could I get one cheapest?

  • check ebay for your screen - you'll need the direct replacement, not some generic screen.
