Based on this thread's poll, it would seem like I have a 50/50 shot of getting a good one. Based on the posts here and my experience (I've personally seen 4 bad ones and no good ones), I think the odds are much, much worse.
The poll here is very inaccurate. Most people don't even know what the "good" one looks like--until after they have already voted...

Based on my experience, you have maybe a 10-15% of getting a good one through Sprint...

If you are talking about an actual replacement screen by itself, I bet it's much lower... they tend to use the cheapest parts available for repairs... (so does every company.)
