Second Opticsplanet. OPT carry them, but sell-out so quickly that they rarely have any. Anacortes carries them as well, but they tend to charge higher postage rates.
Postage has gone up a lot in the last couple of years, but $50 spent on one of these will not be wasted!

I doubt there are better purpose-built finderscopes than Stellarvue's.
Mine doubles as a spotting scope during the day.
Supposedly SDM Telescopes are the Australian distributors for SV, but they don't carry stock AFAIK.
Good luck!
