content: Can we get any information on what you need. Asking for something general like that makes it hard to determine what to recommend.

content: Not wanting to claim op's thread, but I'm also happen to be searching for a good source for cheap tft lcd's. Standart vga resolution 640x480 in my case. The cheap one I sourced and am testing at the moment is VERY interference sensitive. Very annoying and I can't seem to lay my finger on where the problem is. So if anyone knows a good place to buy half decent of these screens, I'd also be happy to know!

content: What i need is a display, from 2.4 to 3.5 inch, it would be nice (but not required) if i could buy the resistive touch screen in the same shop.

content: Newhaven has some displays that might work for you.8 different 2.4" ranging from $9.83 to $16.50:http://www.newhavendisplay.com/tfts-24-tfts-c-1_590.htmlThey also have good customer support. I've used their displays in the past and when I've had a question, I usually got an answer within a day if not faster.

content: Parallel or serial interface, not any VGA, HDMI or anything. Also i cant use ready modules, i need a raw display with a FFC. I was considering Newhaven, but 60$ shipping blasted me.

content: I found another source, for 13,80 delivered in EU I think it might be difficult to beat. It's a module but on the pictures of the back you can clearly see what seems to be the flat flex of the lcd. I ordered one of these to check it out, if you want I can let you know more when it arrives.http://www.benl.ebay.be/itm/New-3-2-Inch-LCD-Touch-Screen-Display-Monitor-Module-For-Raspberry-Pi-B-B-/201212379304?hash=item2ed93140a8
