Personally, I would go with Heyboer. Did that for a needed power transformer on a MidWest Radio. Very large xformer. Under $100 for a custom made (not including shipping). Buying a used is well, buying a 70+ year old xformer. Yes, took a couple of weeks but looks exactly right and works great. Nice part is you can specify your input voltage on the new xformer.
