If you're worried I bet you could talk bullfrog into picking one up for you; the place is right down the street from his work. I've been there. Kinda a bunch of dicks, but they did give me a box of stranded cat5 once because they didn't have the solid from their web page. (stranded for the price of solid--about $40 off) YMMV, though.
