Lcd panel sourcing data
So, now I'm four for four on working lcd panels directly from two manufacturers on alibaba for panels between 9 and 12 inches diagonally and with resolutions ranging from 1280x800 to 2160x1600, along with the needful driver electronics for each, ranging from USD 48 to 100 per setup.
re: Lcd panel sourcing data
The most expensive is the prettiest and the highest resolution. The least expensive is the lowest resolution but only negligably less pretty than the mid-range panel.
No surprises.
The 2160x1600 and 1280x800 panels came from one supplier who was much more high-communication, and also got the shipment to me twice as quickly as the other supplier.

Lcd panel sourcing, next steps
Come Friday, I will be sending an inquiry to the supplier of the 2160x1600 panels and asking for a quote on 100 panels with (a) hdmi driver boards and (b) hdmi+usb-c+usb-c driver boards.
I'll ask the same of the 1920x1080 panel supplier.
Expect a report back as data becomes available.
