Pixel 6 repair cost (lemmy.ml)

How much do I need to pay for repairing phone which got flooded? It's a pixel 6, I've opened it, and saw some corrosion on the MB. It does not react to power button, nor to plugging it to the charger.

I could not find motherboard on Ifixit, but maybe someone tried to repair such a damage via Google themselves?

That's almost the same as the price of a new Pixel 7a, that repair quote is a complete joke. As Extras said, you could try to find a Pixel 6 on Ebay that is in bad shape (cracked screen etc... but works) for cheap and then use its motherboard. Otherwise, you could also just go for a used or refurbished Pixel 6, I found this one at €275 on Ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/186093640631 (I'd probably try to haggle a bit for a lower price).
