Give the Shimano Service Centre a call.

They stock a large selection of spares.

i got quoted the same from felindre for a 6000 for an ultegra and thought it was a bit much. searched and searched online and never found anywhere else selling them. i did find 2 ebay listings from italy and australia that were 2 years out of date tho :lol:

with this crowd doing them for £50 it would be cheaper to have a spare reel than a spare spool

I have the exact same issue mate. Just gonna bite the bullet and buy a new reel as the Aerlex is actually getting on a bit. Lads do any of the Shimano reels come with 1-2 spare spools?
