Subject: [Leica] Anyone ever had lens separation fixed?

I acquired another 50mm Summitar with some lens separation towards the
top.  I had the same problem with a IIIF and the same lens but ended up
saving it.  I missed the lens so I picked up one today and couldn't
believe the price at my local camera shop that is usually WAYYYYYYYYY
over priced for anything Leica.....$49.00.  It's in even better shap
than my old one so here's my question.  How much would fixing this lens
separtion be?  Does anyone have any ballparks?  Last time I asked people
said it wasn't worth it...but since I got such a good deal on the lens,
I'm wondering if it's worth it now?  Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
Gabe
