CD Transport Repair

Does anyone know of a competent repair shop for CD transports?

I am currently having one repaired. I went through the manufacturer, who ultimately had me send it to a repair shop they designated. It has fallen into a black hole. Not having received an estimate after almost 2 months, I am getting close to insisting that they box it up and ship it back.

Any ideas would be appreciated. I may need future repairs.

Thank you for responding.

When loaded the disc just spun and was not read. It would not stop spinning unless the power was turned off.

I am not going to attempt to diagnose or repair this transport myself.

georgehifi - The transport is a Pro-ject CD Box RS. I have both the upgraded power supply (Power Box Uni 1-Way) and DC cable for it as well.

I can't find anything on that laser/mech, it "looks like" a Philips CDM12 but it's not. (could be unobtainable now?) 
This guy had a spare laser, maybe he know what it is and if available still.
