missing 1099

I'm self employed. One of my suppliers didn't send me a 1099. He missed sending it and has already submitted all his other info to the IRS, the state, etc. It would be time consuming and costly for him to resubmit his paperwork for my $970.  I have two choices. I can submit the amount on my return since I have all his 1099 info from previous returns or I could not include the amount on my return, If I include the amount, which is what I want to do, is the IRS going to have a problem because they don't have their copy of the 1099? I look forward to your comments. Thanks
