The mesh wheel in my SWC Xtreme 160 finally shredded itself. Anyone know where I can purchase another one other than the SWC website?!? They want $13 for shipping and it will take 2-4 weeks or $23 for 10 days. I can deal with the price but don't want to be without a skimmer that long. I'm hoping someone knows of a source local or even in the USA.
 
If you can determine the brand and model of the pump itself, I'm sure a google search would get you what you want. Most of the big vendors (premium aquatics, aquacave, marine depot, etc) carry replacement parts for most of the common skimmer pumps.
 
I ended up finding what I needed at Sea Side Aquatics in California. All I can say about them is WOW!! I ordered my parts around 11pm Thursday and got an immediate response back from them. They had my stuff out the door the next day and I received them Monday morning. For starters they were sympathetic to my situation and shipped everything Priority mail, no extra charge. Then they threw in extras at no additional charge. I absolutely could not believe how outstanding this experience was.

My hats off to the guys over there.

@Andrew - thanks for the skimmer offer and thanks to everyone else for their advice!! Much appreciated.
