Where to buy quality power cord for 600X?

Though I need only a power cord I ordered both the adaptor and power cord for the 600x form simple micro. It is a piece of junk. The power cord isn't even 3 prong an I strongly suspect the thing will not last beyonhd the 6 months they warranty it. The adaptor gets incredibly hot.

So I want to geyt just a new paoer cord. I tried on Lenovo's site with no luck.

I just don't know how to determine what I am getting is of quality.

I can't return the simple micro deal because they charge $40 to return (return fee and restocking fee) + shipping and the thing only cost $35. So I am out and screwed.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm sure that you can either find a cord on eBay or you could also try asking around the "For Sale" forum on this messageboard. Just about any power cord with the yellow barrel tip from a newer ThinkPad should work and they show up on the "For Sale" forum every now and then.

Problem with e-bay is a question of quality... I searched through there.. and there is not a clue as to what the stuff is made of, is it shielded, etc...

This was this best seller I found on e0bay for selling this product:

http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-3-Prong-AC-Lapt ... otohosting With shipping it comes out to $5.00

These are the other two I was thinking off:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0007O ... 4?n=172282

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00023 ... oding=UTF8

The latter has a lifetime warranty and the first one at amazon.... I am tryin got find out form the reseller if the courd is shielded and what hte warranty is... it is the one that appeals the most....

I indeed bought one from him for much less than $10 shipped and it is identical to my original IBM powercord. He was not certain if it was OEM but I am pretty positive it is... plus he got it too me very fast.
