Most places sell just reconditioned units anyway.
Find a reputable gearbox specialist and you should be fine.

It might be worth changing the x-mission oil firstly and also attack the linkage with some lithium grease.
Failing that exchange 'boxes are more common than new 'boxes anyway so buy with confident caution (or cautious confidence).

Personally I think reconditioned boxes are generally better made than OEM ones. They are hand assembled and the quality checks are usually better as long as you use a professional gearbox specialist to do the work.
You might even be able to get your existing box fixed rather than replaced but a swap out is generally the common way this is done.

are you sure the clutch isn't just worn? how does the pedal feel and where is the "bite point"
