I got the IBM/Mitsumi double-speed at a Micro Center in
Tustin, Cali, for $169 ($182 with tax, marked $199 on the
box).  Their phone number is 714.566.8500.  I do not
know if they do mail-order but if you're desparate it's
worth a shot.  It includes a 16-bit bus card with two 
rca audio outs on it, cables for data and audio, and best
of all, it doesn't require a cd caddy - the sliding tray
has the 5" and 3" 'holes' like most audio cd's have.  
It's also got a headphone plug and volume wheel on the 
front.  Quite a bargain.
