Cartridge Left Channel Dead

My 1997 Goldring Excel VX after providing great pleasure all these years is broken. The left-channel is dead. What are my options? Is this something I can have repaired here in the USA. Is it worth having repaired considering its age. I love listening to my system, but I can do so on weekends only. I have other sources, so its is light at best.

i swapped the connections from cartridged to tonearm (left to right, right to left). that's how i confirmed it was the cartridge.

Tobias - thanks for the response. i will check out soundsmith; also goldring responded to my email, and they too would repair it as long as the body is not damaged, they say. it's not; actually its in great shape so i might take that route. got a decision to make, as this might be an opportunity to try a different sound.
