Have a look at this article:

First thing I would do is check that the cylinder has not just slipped of place... remove it using the paper clip as shown in the photos then reinsert it and make sure that it clicks into place. I find that to get the paper clip in you have to turn the key to a bit past the position 1.

I have a used lock mechanism with the cylinder and one key that I would sell for considerably less than 1000 euros... less than 100 euros. But likely you can find used parts a lot closer if you need to.
