Check with a local pottery supply. By the time you add in shipping, cheap ain't so cheap any more:

Thanks Mike,
I appreciate the thought. One of these days I am going to make it out your way!
Not a bad price on Ebay but the $150 for shipping kills it!!

Found some in Nashville for $284 to my door. OUCH!!
What is a good price on brick?

You need to look for a local refractory because the shipping cost will eat you alive! The best place to find this information is ThomasNet.com

Here is a place that is in my town who carries it:
