Not being snarky at all. If you don't want to spend the coin on something that is new, that's your choice. If you don't want to spend half price of new, but take the gamble, again, your choice.
Other than the stuff at PA (I don't trust that crap), Kijiji (roll the dice), or going new (it works, with a warranty!!), your options are really limited.
A better way would have been saying.... "I'm looking for a place that sells HVAC surplus parts. Specifically, I want a 115 V furnace blower fan and squirrel cage to hack into a garage exhaust setup. I am looking at spending $0.02. Can anyone point me in the right direction?"

$150 for a blower IS over priced, but I am sure that if it was on kijiji, there would be some wiggle room.
$150 will get you a whole BRAND NEW motor/housing/fan.
Food for thought.
if we were smart with our money we wouldn't own Jeeps.
Here's your cup of STFU... ENJOY!

Fans and Motors. 12th ST just north of 32 AVE.... west side of 12th. Dude's name is Jeff. He will have blower housings and fans and motors.

You're kinda fucked, then, aren't ya?

Fans and motors will be closed as of may.  Try sopers supply instead.  Ask for Renee, he is actually a member here on the forum.

Call any old residential HVAC company and look for an old furnace.

And Trev ain't a plumber guys.

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

Did you get a blower yet? I have one from my old furnace... I do hvac as well and kept the blower when I did my furnace swap... it has a used motor on it and works well... I've used it for ventilation in my garage as well... pm me if you want to look at it

hey lets resurrect an old thread..

I need a 440 Volt, dual 40/5 mfd round motor run capacitor for my central air, as mine is puffed. 
Of course, local HVAC place won't sell to me because I don't have a ticket to purchase such things.  Anyone have a solution other than ordering online from far-far-far away?

Thanks all, managed to get a hold of one.  Nice to have central air again.
