Best Option? - Repair or replace CD Changer

Ok - I posted a few weeks back about my changer's magazine being stuck in my 2001 W208. I was able to get it out by pulling the power and fiber plugs on the changer. All was well for a couple of weeks, but unfortunately, it's acting up again... I changed the CD's this morning and same message and changer is stuck again..

Would my best plan be to have it repaired? Or purchase a new one? If repairing or purchasing would be best - who has the best price / service?

Thanks & Merry Christmas!

Alex

I am not sure who has the BEST price, but I know we can do it for less than half most dealerships, and 1/3 the price at others.
