Any hobby shop can order them. (you did order the correct "High" or "Low" and RX for your frequency didn't you?)

Futaba ghas decided its cheaper to ship the RX's without the crystaland make you pay the $12 for the separate crystal. (same with a lot of other recievers..)

If you had ordered the Hobbico Command Reciever on the correct frequency... you would have saved appx $10 on the reciever... and the crystal would have been included (for a total of appx $22 savings... ) The Hobbico RX appears to be a relabeled Futaba... (I haven't opened the case of peeled the label... but the case appears to be out of the same mold as my Futaba RX.)
It is the same as the futaba 127, I have one. The fcc label on the back of the hobbico rx is exactly the same as the one on the futaba rx.
