It can be fixed as I usually created a new thread and use a bigger crank extractor to removed it.

Any decent LBS should have such tools.

Done it numerous time due to old cheap chainset getting its thread stripped easily, save customer having to buy new chainset.

So they just have to pay for the boring, threading and the new larger extractor? Seems like a new crank would be cheaper ;-)

They don't, they just paid the bottom bracket labour charge.

The tools stay with us, if they want to extract it, we simply use our oversized crank puller.

It's easy, take me 10 minutes to removed.
