Where Do I Go For Help?

I purchased my Sony WMFX290 from Amazon on December 12 2012. It suddenly stopped working - in the middle of playing a tape - on May 20 2014. (Nothing wrong with the tape, which plays perfectly well on other machines.) Where can I go in London to find out what's wrong?

I suppose you would have to find a general electronics repair shop. You're not going to find anyone that specializes in cassette players anymore. Honestly though, I highly doubt it's worth repairing since you can probably buy a new one for under $5.
