Anyone know where to get a simple 'cold shoe' like this one? (pic inside)

I have an umbrella bracket that I got used and it didn't come with a flash mount, just the umbrella bracket...
All I need is the little aluminum flash holder at the top. They call them a 'cold shoe' don't they?

I went to HCE but no luck. Other places had these snazzy ones for like $25, but I can get the whole bracket for like $15.

I got mine at Adorama.

I'm surprised HCE didn't have some.
Look in the video section at some of the big box stores. They are used on video cameras as well as still cameras.
FlashZebra is a great resource.

Bingo! I looked on FZ but didn't see it under "products".
Thanks John and Cap!

+1 for Lon at Flash Zebra. He's one of the good guys.

I ordered one from B&H recently. $16 + $3 shipping as I recall.
