I have this regulator, its old... http://www.micromatic.com/draft-keg-beer/regulators-pid-842.html

The gasket seal is bad, and it just leaked my whole tank of CO2. I looked at ordering a handfull of replacements from micromatic, but the shipping is 6.00 for a 1.55 part...

Does anyone know where I can find replacements with more reasonable shipping?

I may just replace the regulator and get something nicer, like the governor from NB?

What are your thoughts?

Cheers
 
Is it a flat "gasket", or an O-ring that's bad?

And the place you are sourcing it from, can you speak with someone there, and ask it be shipped "parcel post", re: in an envelope?

That is a decent regulator, no need to give up on it for something "new", and of questionable quality and construction.
