Body adjustment

I dont know how to describe whats happening with my camera body. Im annoyed with my camera right now so Im trying to talk nice about it but....
Something is loose. I have tightened up all the visible screws and its still loose.
Do you think I could possibly get it fixed at a camera shop, or does that sound like a mail order problem.
I know that vague.
Just wondering what you think.
I think Im the only one with this camera here (for good reason..ugh)
so explaining it further might be useless anyway.
(I feel a different camera in my near future)
Ive found that I dont want to even pick it up anymore because its so frustrating to use. And that partly after I played with my aunts brand new Cannon.  Hmmmm.
Thanks for listening.
Hope that explains some of the issue with my lack of posting images.
UGH!

Corey,

Although that may explain why you have not been posting, it doesn't go very far at explaining what the problem is!

I know I know. I let my frustratin get away with me there.
Sorry.
Ok, So, the body is an 'L' shape. Or, the lens comes off the left side as you looking through the viewfinder, and not the center of the body.
I do not believe that its intended to be detachable.
And, the lens portion of the camera is loose and wiggly from the body/viewfinder portion. And I cant find any more external screws to tighten that I havent already.
Does that sound like something a camera shop could fix?

Any better?

A camera repair shop, yes.  Your average Ritz or Wolf, no. 

Of course, I don't know your area at all.  I am pretty lucky there are several repair shops, of varying quality, in my area and I can shop prices. 

I just took my RB67 180mm to one shop becuase the shutter was not firing.  They quoted me $367 for the repair.  I can buy all of these that I want for under $150 on eBay so I just brought it home.  A few days later, I knew that I was passing another shop and figured that I would drop it there and see what they said.  They fixed it for $63!

Thanks. That helps.
I can probably find that kind of repair shop in old Denver.
Which is not to say I wouldnt rather just sell it and get something better suited to me.
BTW, I used to live in Williamstown just down the road from you.

That is even closer to where I grew up!  My family lived in Stratford, Somerdale and Magnolia.  I went to Camden County College and Rutgers in Camden.

When where you out here?
