It can be fixed but it will cost about £130.

This happened to someone I knew and apple store replaced it, which I was most surprised by as I didn't think they would, maybe you can call them to ask ?

If you made the purchase using a credit card, it may be covered ?

New screen for an iPad/iPad mini should be about £40-70. Anywhere that quotes you £130 is taking the piss. Easy enough to do yourself for about £30 off eBay.

If its the same principle as a smart phone screen then yup, surprisingly easy to fix yourself.

The replacement screens/digitizer are only £11.50 on eBay which is cheap. Screwdriver kit is about £3 and watch the video on YouTube and change it yourself. They are easy enough to do.

It is. Though some of the newer iPads have to be soldered as they obviously realised that plain old ribbon cables could be far too easily replaced by the plebs, thus removing the necessity to visit a 'Genius' or whatever they call the shop assistants in the Apple Store.

For a decent screen your looking at about £40. Don't go for the cheap ones. They are cheap Chinese imports. You should be able to find someone who will be able to fix it local. I'd charge £65 but I'm in kent so no good. X
