Can I order a 6th gen iPod Touch screen from US in Europe (outside EU)

The screen for the iPod Touch 6th generation is available in the US store, but not the EU store. Is it possible to have it shipped to the EU store so I can order it from there?

Alternatively, are the 5th and 6th gen screens interchangeable? (The 5th gen is available in the EU store that ships here.)

I’m still confused why such a common part wouldn’t be available in the EU…

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hello @marodir,

We are, unfortunately, unable to forward parts from our US store to our EU store. You can try using a freight forwarder if that works for you.

From what I can find in our forums, it seems that they are likely interchangeable.

I hope this helps and good luck with your iPod!

Hi Amber,

Thank you for looking into it for me. Have to be honest, the whole thing makes no sense. I just checked, and the gen. 5 screen in Europe is more than twice the price of the gen. 6 in the US, and over 3 times the price of a US gen. 5 replacement screen... And why would the gen. 6 parts be impossible to get in Europe? And in the link you posted, someone mentioned that there were slight differences that might mess with the camera's alignment with the hole in the glass bezel.

Will the EU never carry this product (gen. 6)? And do you have any idea why the gen. 5 is so ridiculously priced? Even with 25% VAT, the price seems insanely high. (In US 6 = $40, 5 = $30, in EU 5 = $99.40)

Hi @marodir, I'll have that checked on the EU side, however it'll probably take me a while to get to the bottom of it!

Hi @marodir , the price for the iPod touch 5 screens has now been adapted in the EU store: https://eustore.ifixit.com/products/ipod..., we're still working on the iPod touch 6 screen!
