Default WTB: Plastic FLOAT Valve

I had ordered one from ebay, but almost 2 months later, I never got it (I recently filed a complaint on paypal and the seller agreed to refund me). So I'm still SOL for a Float Valve.

Does anyone know where I can get one locally?? Just a plastic one with a 1/4" OD John Guest fitting. TIA.

I use the humidifier floats form Home Depot. They have a 1/4" compression fitting that works with the plastic tubing.
