Welcome nhighlander67 
I believe you can get small ones directly from Wistuba or from Borneo Exotics through one of their distributors for about half the money you have reserved. You could check Par O Bek Orchids (exoticplantsplus.com) or California Carnivores but it all depends on how often they re-stock that plant. Most of the distributors in the USA only import once or twice a year and macrophylla, because its pricy and difficult is not always on the lists.
There is some guy in central California who somehow got his hands on a very large specimen, which must be degrading daily where he lives, and has it listed on EBay for the "imported from Mars" price of $6000. No takers yet.
If, your happy with a very small plant that will take years to reach even a moderate size then I'd say your best bet is to order one directly from Wistuba at The Nepenthes Nursery.
Good Luck
