Good place to get an FX5 pump?

Doing my weekly water change and I notice the FX5 isn't pumping.  That's ok, I think I cleaned it about this time last week, and replaced the impeller.  And it shuts off for a few minutes the same time every day.

 

5 minutes later:  Still not running.

10 minutes later:  Bugger.

 

I've pulled it out poked and prodded it, pulled the impeller out, put it back in.  Out of the water it spins, but rattles a lot, jerking frequently.  I've put everything back together and it *SEEMS* to be working fine.

 

I don't trust it though.

 

I can't find anywhere to actually buy one though, anyone know where to look?  Nothing on Amazon, Fishpond doesn't have them available, redwood and Hollywood don't have them listed.  Pretty FX5 and FX6 pumps are interchangeable.
