>LCDs are expensive to repair, but cheap to buy
How so? For both CRTs and LCDs if the screen breaks, it's impossible to repair and can only be replaced, which indeed can be expensive, as much as just getting a new set.
If anything else breaks though, LCDs are generally much cheaper and simpler to repair. They generally just have two or three small circuit boards inside, the power supply, the main board, an sometimes an inverter. If you aren't skilled in replacing components you can just replace the entire board, which usually IS much cheaper than buying a new set, if you are skilled in soldering then it's even significantly cheaper still to replace that component if you can tell what was damaged.
CRTs can be a mess of components inside, and can be dangerous to open up, and many times are one huge piece so you generally can't replace just the broken board as it's all one huge part.
