I have a Beogram 7000 with MMC 2. The needle looks in good shape, but stands askew. It doesn't work. Can this be fixed? Who? How? Where?

Soundsmith can fix this. Internal suspension failure.

Thanks for your answer Peter.

Is this very expensive?

Any high end cartridge repair is more expensive than swapping in a new stylus on a low end cartridge.

I've been super happy with a MMC2 rebuild I had done by pickupservicedk via eBay.

Here is another option for full rebuild.

The UK option Audio-Origin, via eBay suspension repair is £130
