Default Cheapest place to buy new ballast 2 x 175w

Hi does anyone know which is the cheapest place to buy a new ballast for a set of metal halide lights 2 x 175w? I heard that Big Al has them, does anyone know if Aquagiant carries them?

I would either try a LF post like stated above or try the LFS up there Blue world or something of that sort, im sure they could order them in. I have never been to the LFS up there but if its anything like Calgary I would bet that Big Al's will not be the cheapest place to buy them.

JL Aquatics has a PFO ballast for 2x175W for $208.00 if you can't find anything used. I find these guys have really good prices for Canada, Big Al's is usually really expensive unless you use their on-line price beating guarentee if you can find the same item.
