Hi, just bought myself an used mid 2014 macbook retina..
I found there is alot of user report they have retina coating issue but in malaysia seems not that common..

Erm the coating issues will come regardless of how you "take care" of the screen
My rMBP only sits at home on the desk, I rarely touch the screen at all and yet I replaced the screen twice due to this issue.

I heard some fella saids that can just replace the glass instead the screen. is it valid?
So it really depends luck?

Not sure about that
What i know is that they covered warranty claims up to 3 years from my date of purchase, so they replaced the screen for me 2 times even though out of warranty. You need to check with the authorised service centres for more info on this

Do you know the price to replace the screen?

I have one unit of 2014 rMBP, the screen seems to be dead (not functioning) already.
