Frequent correspondent V. Sivaram's promises on Pechorin should not be trusted!

V. Sivaram often claims to be able to sell Sony spares and service information. I have sent him e several e-mails similar to one below and he never answers. Perhaps he is apprehensive that someone close to Mumbai might discover all his limitations and false promises! If he fails to answer this on Pechorin all will be able to judge his trade promises: Dear Mr. V. Sivaram, I refer to your recent message posted on Pechorin's Forum and copied below this minute. I have noted similar message(s) / replies before and requested specific information addressed direct to you during the last three months at sony@vsnl.com but you have NEVER replied. I hope you will find time to reply to this last attempt of mine! I have a one year old Sony Cybershot DSC-T3 digital camera, purchased in Dubai, that was bumped whillst inside a briefcase. Consequently, the LCD screen suffered a minor crack in the top glass. I require replacement part(s) for this LCD / CCFL assembly. The camera is otherwise functional with a small dark band in middle where the CCFL backlight has failed. All pixel elements appear to function when even the dark unlit(backlit) band is viewed in strong light. I would also like a copy of the technical service manual. Perhaps with your experience and trade links you may be able to locate and source the same. I would greatly appreciate an early answer. Other enquiries sent to Dubai and USA yielded only partial information as follows so I am appealing to you to provide a "one-stop" solution to my problem. I am a qualified electronics and ex- BBC broadcast engineer so can undertake all the repair myself. To establish a goodwill and genuine interest in an economic quote, I am able to request a small advance deposit payment if you so desire, through my relations in Mumbai. Question: Is the LCD part reference no.875322018 ? Question: Is the service manual reference no. 987676432?
