WTF: volume control/ power switch

[Robert Akins]

Hello:
I made the mistake of purchasing a set of computer speakers from a dealer
on eBay, and of course, they arrived today... broken. The volume control/
power switch was pushed in and the tabs broken off it. It is a 5K dual
audio pot with a spst switch, pcb mount,~16mm. 1/4" flatted shaft about
3/4" long. I would prefer to replace the control myself rather than go
through the hassle of sending back the speakers to get replacements. Where
is a good place for a diy type person to pick up one of these?
