- masklinn 11y agoThese are specialised industrial suppliers, you can't buy it at a place, you have to request a quote from a supplier[0] and pray you'll get a callback (then try again through a different channel, because they most likely won't reply to somebody who just wants a 32" panel, note how the contact form has a "volume" selection starting at "< 10000 units/year"). Seriously. When you try to get an evaluation/test kit you get a 7-segments display[1].
