I bought a replacement floppy drive (internal) for my SE/30 a year ago from WeLoveMacs. Despite the fact I ordered the correct drive from their website though, they shipped me the manual inject kind (which you cannot use in the SE/30). However, when I shot a photo for them, they promptly shipped me a new, correct drive and let me keep the other drive too. I still have that other floppy drive (manual inject) sitting in its original WeLoveMacs box because I can't use it!
So if you order from them, please be sure to converse with them by email so they don't make the same mistake with you too.

And by the way, yes, I did consider EBAY first. But these drives are not always on EBAY, and when they are, the seller doesn't know what they're selling. Unless you get a working guarantee from a really good EBAY seller, I would suggest going with a reputable establishment like WeLoveMacs or similar for a floppy drive purchase. Heads go bad over time, so you want a guarantee the drive will work like new when you order it from someone.
