Within the letter it said if I do not…

Screen replacement
My son bought an lg spirit on Saturday and dropped it and smashed the screen before he even got it home. He has been quoted £50 for a second hand screen replacement or £100 new on a phone that cost him £90. Any ideas where he could get this repaired cheaper? Tia.
