Have you tried searching for someone who can rebuild the gear, that might cost less.

First google, if this mechtronic issue is due to age, then buying used one is risky.

If not, used one is good option but still check if rebuilding is doable and cheaper. That way you know it has good life and you will keep track of anything unsuall happening with gearbox in future.

Gearbox usually dont fail so easily, if regular gear oil and gear oil filter get changed in time. What VW says gear oil is for life means life of gearbox and not car. And thats why they want you to spend money at 80-100k kms when gearbox fails. If gearbox oil changed at 30-40k kms these gearboxes runs over 250k kms easily.
