I don't have any experience with this pump, but Rock Auto usually doesn't carry junk.

It's on final wholesale clearance so it's only $25...it was selling on at about double this recently during the first round of clearance. Next cheapest pump is three times the price and you'd have to buy the strainer still.

From RockAuto on this part
A manufacturer may discontinue certain part numbers or drop an entire product line. A distributor may switch from one brand of products to a competing brand. A store may decide to clear out slow-selling parts to make room for more popular items.

In circumstances like these, the seller is willing to accept a small fraction of retail value from someone willing to take all the parts at once.
Wholesalers specializing in surplus inventory make these bulk purchases and then re-distribute the parts to other stores and distributors, or to overseas markets.

It's not a high flow pump, but if you need one it's a lot better than $100.
