I bought mine from ebay.

Use this search string "slim bluray drive"

Mine came from a shop based in HK/China and it took a month to arrive but it did :)

I remember my BDRom drive cost me around US$99 back in 2009 and that included shipping.

Paypal gamit ko so if ever it doesn't arrive I can dispute the charges naman.
