Literally so pissed right now

No, this is not a clickbait.
I'll explain.

I have an iPhone 6+ that my workmate gave to me, the reason was because she dropped it into a bucket of water and the screen went kaput, the phone would turn on just fine and work properly too. I bought a cheap ebay screen for it and it worked flawless.
However cheap turns out to be expensive since the screen was indeed so cheap that the glue peeled off and my iPhone was suddenly a Samsung flip phone from the 2000's.
I bought a genuine, original refurbished screen for my iPhone which, of course, was way more pricey. Money wasn't the issue here, I just wanted an original refurbished top AAA quality screen for it.
I waited 2 months for it and I did got the screen today... with 2 vertical lines and touchscreen not working at all.
I'm guessing that they did indeed refurbished the screen since its clearly original however they did not test it out before shipping, leaving me with a dud defected screen.
What I'm pissed about is that the guy raised his price so refunding me will do me no good.

TL;DR Bought genuine original refurbished screen for iPhone, received it 2 weeks later (promised time was 1 week) and it was faulty.

I currently use my old Android phone which is cracked as shit and half of touch screen does not work, making it impossible to take calls or turn off those damn alarms.
So you can tell how much I wanted the screen to work since I'm basically out of a phone to use.

@HamBone41801 yes, however that did not solved it.
I've cleaned the connectors with isopropyl alcohol, reseated them, checked if it was bent but nope. It was poorly manufactured and they didn't even bother to test it out.

@DRAGONBALLVINTAGE I've been using Android since 1.6 (Donut) and up until now.
I want something that doesn't make me wanna buy a new phone every two years because it lacks system updates and optimization. Thus I'm sticking to Apple ATM, maybe I'll change later maybe not.

Sorry I couldn't help but point out that if you are in a state where you are "literally pissed", it would involve urine in one way or another.

I gotta lolipop phone and it makes IOS 11 look like shit get a samsung galaxy 5-8 those should last and its good for NGC emulation and VR because more power

edit: thanks hambone

Not after emulation, got better platforms to emulate NGC on.
As for Samsung, I despise them. Once they release a device with a proper version of Android instead of their own modified bloatware shitty version of Android, I'll consider.
Regardless, everything in iOS 11 runs smoothly and fast, no matter the iDevice thus one of the reasons of why I'm more inclined to Apple lately.

Aw I thought you were drunk.

Anyway phone screens have joined batteries in the things I have to source from a proper vendor as there is too much crap on the market.

I don't know how good the screens are not coming from Apple and there quality. Probably bad?

I'm in a new problem. The seller is refusing to send me a replacement unless I return the currently faulty screen.
Thing is, I'm not the one in charge of returning it in the first place, according to eBay, the seller is responsible for postage if the item is faulty.
I have asked him for a full refund but I'm pretty sure he's not gonna reply since his attitude changed after I mentioned a refund or a replacement unit.
Guess I'm gonna have to call eBay support on this.

    @The Real Jdbye, I thought about that and I have blank DVD's and Blurays but honestly after like 90 songs I just listen to it a couple of hundred times toss it out and burn something else or have like 2-3 CD's. Florida here the heat in the car tends to ruin the CD's after like a few months even commercial pressed ones don't last too long.
