What size is the tank and are you willing to pick it up?

 

[warr40]

60gallon yes, in reasonable distance.

We tried to work something out through RB's but I am apparently too far and the closest reefer I could think of doesn't use heaters.

Perhaps try turning up the heat in the house a bit and keep your fingers crossed.

I would also suggest that when you replace the broken heater, you purchase 2 instead of one, specifically so you don;t run into this issue again.
If you planned on a single 200 W heater (for example) - get 2 - 100w heaters. If one breaks, then at worst you will have some heat and if one ever 'stick's you will not superheat the tank.
No need for them to be Titaniums (they are kind of expensive), Ebo Jagers are excellent/reliable heaters and will probably be easier to find locally.
