    Price estimate on a computer repair?

    My space bar has become detached and I was wondering, hypothetically, about how much it would cost to have it repaired by a professional?

    I'm assuming it's a laptop, else you get could a new keyboard(?), not much I'd estimate... If you still have a receipt you could get a free repair from whatever store.

    You all are wrong. Im a tech at bestbuy I replaced a spacebar for a customer a few days ago. The total cost 24.08... because we had to order out for the space bar replacement... the labor was 15$ lol

    You could DIY and replace the spacebar with a block of wood. It's all pressy-shit anyway. :)

    Do you have the spacebar? It will click back into place. How exactly is it broken? Please be more specific.

    And then you can't use it. >.<

    Anyways, if you were to take it to get repaired professionally they would probably order a whole new keyboard (or claim to) and it would probably be like $30 - $40.
    Unless it is really obvious that you just need to reattach it then it may be cheap, maybe even free if you take it to the right place.
