How much money to repair an LCD television with image retention?

My tv has gone to complete crap, and I have more than gotten sick of it.

Those are pictures of the image retention or burn in (taken with my phone, screenshots wouldn't work for obvious reasons) on my desktop, Fallout New Vegas, Half-Life 2, iTunes, Amnesia, and some gray picture that REALLY shows it. I have tried to use some of the "play this video for several days and it will cure it" things and they did nothing. I would like to know how much it would cost, and if it's even possible, to have someone repair an LCD tv with image retention.

    I suspect you'll need a new display. It would cost more than replacing your TV. I don't know if the displays are available for a price comparison. The labor is quite expensive also.
