Blackberry repair in richmond?

My phone is functional but sadly all I'm seeing is a white screen. The warranty for my phone ran out on the 4th, and I want to see if it's cheaper to repair it. Anyone know somewhere in Richmond I can take this?

It's for a 9700.

$245? Did you mention RS? They give you a discount on repairs if you do.
