Hi, my friend has a Sony P&S that has great personal meaning to her
that she'd like repaired. I'm seeing if I can afford it for her
birthday. I'd like to ask here what places that ship nationwide in
the USA have the best reputations for high-quality service. I'm
willing to pay more to make sure there are no screw-ups, since this is
not just any "ordinary" camera.

BTW, the problem is just that the lens won't go in and out anymore,
and I am looking into the only local place that repairs cameras, but
I'm not sure if they ship them out for service yet.

Thanks!

You would likely be better off looking for a replacement on Ebay.
Many P&S cameras simply cannot be repaired.
This is the disposable society . . .
