What kind of repair?
I proxy anything including keyboards (キーボード / 鍵盤), from both Japan (日本) and China (中國). For more information, you may visit my dedicated webpage here: https://www.keyboards.es/proxying.html

"What kind of repair?"

Is there such a thing as a keyboard overhaul to make it good as new? I have three of these keyboards. One escape key needs to be re-soldered (I took apart the switch to see), and a couple keys on each keyboard work only 80% of the time so you have to strike them twice. I've taken them apart and de-oxit'ed them which seems to help, but then the key to the left of the one I just cleaned will stop working too. Once the keyboard has been in use for 10 minutes or so the letter keys are okay, but the space bar is intermittent (I have not tried to take it apart yet).

It would probably be easy enough to fix. Maybe a couple of bad switches that need to be resoldered. A bunch of people here could do it for you if you're comfortable with that.

Yeah solder just needs to be reflowed. You could probably get a half-decent iron and do it yourself as well.
