Thanks for the replies, everybody! Just wanted to circle back around to update that everyone's suggestions worked very well. I got 3 sockets from China on ebay, since with expedited shipping it was just a couple more dollars than getting a single of the 3M style from Amazon.

The socket worked when I put it on which was great! After a few test roms, i used an old toothbrush to apply some dielectric grease, but it globbed on a bit so i used the clean back half of the toothbrush to pick up the residue and then use a few q-tips to clean up leftover mess, well i was scared for a minute because it wouldn't recognize any roms anymore! I took off and put back the socket a few times, after a couple tries it worked perfectly again and has continued to work perfectly since then, so i might have needed to let it settle a bit.
