Default $400 down the drain

I have a friend who has a sapphire 9800 pro and the bloody thing just gave out on him, The problem is that I just put a zalman on it last thursday now the original HSF is currently on one of my machines and has been modified, so the company wont RMA it without this HSF. Anyone know of any places that sell stock cooling for the card, really just need a fan for it?
