Thanks! So do you have any suggestions on how to find a good one? Something like Google reviews, or what other approach do people use? I don't care for super cheapest.
I'm also now wondering if the component that fell off had a fixed orientation (since it would fit in two angles, if you rotate it 180 degrees horizontally it sits on top just the same) and whether the shop would need to know that.
Maybe a repair cafe can solder it, or recommend a shop.
