Something got under the Caps Lock key and I pulled of the key to clean it but accidentally broke of one of the hooks on the key. If I take it to the Apple Store, will there be a replacement right away? Or will the have to order it? And if anyone knows how much it would cost that would be nice too (I don't have Apple Care).
Got a tip for us?

Larger stores generally have old keyboards laying around and can pop off the key you need and send you on your way in a few minutes free of charge. You of course need to make a Genius Bar appointment, which can be a gigantic pain in the butt.
Smaller stores often don't have the extras laying around and will have to order a part for you. I've been told that they have to replace the whole keyboard, which runs about $150. Yes, it's ridiculous.
