Default Reman. AC delco Opti?

Ive been looking everywhere for a new opti for my car, and I really want to stick to using a stock replacement AC delco. Thing is I can only seem to find re manufactured ones? Anyone run anything of the sort and have any input, or know where I can buy a new one?

Here is a Delphi one which is ACdelco. These are the real deal. They carry both the vented as well as non vented depending on which you have seeing as you did not list a year. Oh and these are brand new.

Tons of normal parts places sell the Delphi/Delco/GM units (Summit, Jegs, etc.). I don't see why you are having a hard time locating one.

My bad, Im on the west coast of canada. I can find plenty of stuff south of the border, but it seems most places around here are charging about 700 for a stock replacement.
Thank you for the ebay link!
