Possible to buy a new case for SD cards?

An SD card of mine recently got run over by a chair and the case snapped. The chip was recovered from inside and it appears to be alright, is there a site or place where I can buy an empty SD card case to put this chip in? Or could I send it to the manufacturer and have them repair it?

Have some photos I'd like to recover off of it, if possible.

Thanks!

You could buy a cheap, low capacity SD card and see if you can carefully take the case apart.

I thought about suggesting that, except he stated recovering the chip. Which means it would have to be soldered into the new card.
