Know of a place I can purchase a replacement?

How does the Monitor itself look/work?
Have you considered SuperGlue?
One here for $129.

Try Ebay or someone somewhere with a dead moitor for parts.

Superglue should work. I would try the liquid type that you can et at hobbie stores for putting together plastic models. It's super thin and you can hardly see it. It bonds really well.

Hey, I've got to go into the real world yet today, maybe it was old glue!

Tough stuff!
Gorilla Glue

Don't take what I'm about to post to seriously. Mainly because I think the person who posted this info on another board way back when could be working with a forty two card deck or less.

Furniture clear calking tube!
Apply the substance in an even/level layer.
Once curried it will not only hold XX amount of weight but it will act as a rubbery cushion to boot.

I use various calking on a regular bases.
What I use IS NOT ANY TYPE OF GLUE!
Big difference between 'bonding' and a glue type of adhesive.
Though there just might some type of calking out there for your purpose.

Jennie, was the shipment insured? If so, you should definitely file a claim for a replacement foot! I wouldn't waste a lot of time trying to glue it, if you will be provided with a replacement, though you might want to try a two-part epoxy if you still want to give it a shot. Not a big fan of Gorilla glue myself - the stuff makes a mess if you ask me! (and won't be invisible either!).
That would've been logical.
I'll call 800 Apple today. They may have it. If not, I'll try the other suggestions, until I find the replacement.

If Apple doesn't replace the stand, try 2 ton epoxy glue. Use as thin a layer as possible, the thinner the stronger the joint will be.

We can, on a moment's notice, even have a Glue Seminar, hereabouts?
My favorite, usually found only at hobby shops, but so good it's worth a search: Plastic Surgery.
It is strong, strong, strong and fast. Watch your fingertips, however, unless you like them permanently attached to one another!
