As tempting as it is to go to R.S. for that quick-turn / immediate gratification, you can do a lot better ordering them from the plethora of vendors on the Web. Sometimes, if there is an Industrial Electronics Surplus / Recycle store in your vicinity, you can get some fantastic bargains on both new and pulled fans. If you go browsing at one, remember to take a small gell-cell 12V battery and a couple of alligator clip leads with you to test the used ones before you spend your money.

I agree. Go to Radio Shack and get a generic, low output 80mm for about $15 or get a dependable high output 80mm online for about $8 shipped.

Only thing I ever go to RS for is transistors and such...usually only have to go once for those as I get multi-packs if available. That's about the only time you get a decent deal from them.
 
Bye Bye RS, you guys talked me into it, I'll never set foot in a radioshack again, but I used to have so much fun there.
