Today my BV6000's screen cracked. I accidentally dropped it on the sidewalk I contacted the reseller, geekbuying, for repairs

I really thought that this phone was virtually indestructible....

Yes, sturdy but not indestructible.
You can purchase a new screen from aliexpress and replace this destroyed one.

Does this mean that BV via geekbuying won't repair it?

If not, am I purchasing just the Touch Screen Digitizer?

I have changed the screen some weeks ago ...
You have to buy the complete front panel (take care with the color)

Was it easy? I need instructions. Did you watch the teardown video?

Yes, it was.
The video is a good help and you have to follow it step by step.
No obligation with the soldering procedure : you can use the part directly if keeping the entire part (microphone) with silicon attached (see video)

Replacing the screen is easy, replacing only the digitizer is nearly impossible unless very skilled. Better to spend a few €€ extra to avoid frustration/failure.
