Ok, it sounds like you ordered next day shipping. Yes, that's a lot. 2nd is a lot cheaper, BTW. Being in Florida you're a long way from Utah so shipping is more.
The 14 tooth should be OK (Blaster I guess) since there should be enough adjustment room. If not, another master link won't hels you since you have to ad 2 links at a time. Basically, if the 14t sprocket is too much then you're out of luck. But it should be fine, don't sweat it.
The X ring and O ring master links are the same. They both use o-rings for the master link in my experience. It never hurts to have a spare master link anyway. You should really have a chain press and a link removal tool for chains also. You'll need them sooner or later.

hey mini, that shipping is prob right. tires are bulky and the rate on them is up there. my two rears banded together were 26 from rmatv, and i'm a lot closer. i think its ups but dont know for sure.
what tires did you get? for the new shee?
