Thank you for your feedback. The small, black dot near the camera is an ambient light sensor, which is found standard on any replacement glass for the iPod touch. Only the original Apple screens do not feature this black dot, and Apple does not sell their parts to any outside company. Our repair is over $70 cheaper than having the iPod replaced at the Apple Store. The small black dot is approximately 2mm wide, and is located to the right of the camera. It does not affect the usage of the iPod and it is not near the visible part of the iPod's screen, so it is a completely cosmetic issue. The two websites you asked us to order a replacement screen from are selling what are likely counterfeit screens. Since we refuse sell you a counterfeit screen, we have offered to do two things for you: 1. We offered to refund the cost of our screen and allow you to order whichever screen you want, and install it at no additional charge, or 2. We offered a refund over 10% of your total repair cost, $10, for the inconvenience of having a black dot that is purely cosmetic, not near the actual screen, and doesn't affect the use of the iPod in any way. For the light around the edge issue, we have already offered to resolve that for you immediately but we have not heard back. Typically, the adhesive around the edges of a screen will not come up unless it has been heated with a heat gun, such as someone trying to remove the screen. In any event, we will be happy to resolve that issue for you.
