The slot in the blackberry 8320 to insert the power cord on IS BROKEN.
The "teeth" about 5 of them are banged up. How or where can I have it fixed?

So now my BB is useless because there is no power and I can't recharge because the power "teeth" inside the slot are banged up and the connector is not "reading"/connecting to them.

I think this is a result of recharging before and a pressure is put on top of the devide AND the power cord so, the metals are bent inside and now the device won't read the power cord right.

No warranty. I bought from someone on ebay. And I live in Canada so its not provided here.

Does this mean I will have to use the POD from now on?

Well I am guessing that if you cannot plug the normal cord in the slot the charging pod would be the best solution. How old is the BB? There is a 1 year Mfg warranty on these devices that you may be able to get it repaired under.
