    Thats an interesting adapter .
    Never had see one like it .

    I am starting to believe that this is an ACER special part ,
    thats why you got the high price , I am not saying that its fair .

    eBAY are what comes in mind , as solution to find similar parts ,
    but you do need to know how its called .

    Well I will advice you , to do a blind hunting about " Laptop IDE adapter "
    ( and mark the worldwide option too )

    ;)
