Default 1/4" check valve

Anyone know where to get a 1/4" John guest hard line check valve?

Saw some on eBay, but rather not spend that $15 on shipping for a single fitting.

flexpvc is cheaper shipping but item price double compared say to Spectrapure. Aquasafecanada has the threaded/push type.

Just bought one from ebay, $10.94 including shipping, shipped by US postal service so there will most likely be no brokerage fee to pay (Canada Post is supposed to charge a small brokerage fee but I have only been charged once, usually for small orders they don't even bother).

hmm wierd, I bought 4 from home depot, but I have noticed they seam to be downsizing there PVC fittings and such so maby that selection has taken a hit also.

other place to try, find a water treatment system company, in victoria I went to water tiger, but look for a places that builds and installs water treatment systems for houses, they usealy have all kinds of thsat type of stuff for cheep.
