You'll be fine without a skimmer for a few days if needed. I've had mine off for over a month, not the end of the world.
My sump cracked a few months ago, but not leaking. I was facing the same dilemma as you, fix or replace. I was able to fix mine, but if I had to replace, I would have had to break mine apart to get it out of the stand. New sump would have gone in the basement...
Sorry yours broke on you, hopefully the damage is minimal!
