Default Crankshaft Pulley/Harmonic Balancer

My 1999 is in the shop right now. The shop that I had work on this the first time broke off two chunks from the pulley by prying on it, I would guess. It went in for oil pump gears and when I picked it up, it had a broken tensioner pulley, broken radiator, damaged intake elbow, a new oil leak, (harmonic balancer) and a broken taillight. They've had the pulley off about 5 of the 7 times it was in their shop over the last 6 weeks while they were trying to fix everything they broke. I don't want to contact them or have any further communication with that butcher shop.

Now I need a pulley/harmonic balancer, but the cheapest I can find is $510 from Parts Geek. Any other places to get a new one any cheaper?

Thanks!

And believe me, it is easier than pulling it yourself at the boneyard (plan B).

Thanks again. I couldn't get him on the phone. I sent an email and he got back to me within about 3 minutes. Part should be here on Thursday. He's great to deal with, so far.
