Ignition switch just went I think

Well I turn off my car when I parked it and I noticed my radio stayed on. So basically my accessory circuit is always on. Does this sound like a dead ignition switch? I REALLY doubt its a pinched wire unless its in the column becuase it worked once this past week then broke again. What am I looking to pay for a replacement? I can do the labor myself.

Have you done anything to the steering column lately and has this just started? The ignition switch might be out of adjustment.
