I would ask the seller to locate one before going ahead with the transaction. If he's got a product to sell, he should be the one making it up to spec to sell. That's unless you are willing to take a chance. :D

Buy the weight. ;) Finding a screw to fit should be easy, the hard part is finding the match weight. :D

4mm dia.head X 10mm length, w/ 3mm hex. Not sure of threads, but I was able to find some that worked fine. ;)

Take an example to ACE Hardware. They have the exact same screws in different lengths. Cheap.

You must have mistyped (or mismeasured) something - a metric socket head cap screw with a 3mm hex should be an M4x0.7, but that has a 7mm diameter head. It does, however, have a 4mm tall head.

But that would be an impossible screw because a 3mm hex is 4.6mm across the points, so if the head was only 4mm in dia, the corners of the hex socked would break through the sides.

Sorry! :D Should read:
7mm head dia. X 4mm head height X 10mm thread length w/ a 3mm hex.
