Where can I get a new transmission and not get charged $1,800-$2,200?

I have a 2003 Forester that has a problem shifting (primarily downshifting). Subaru told me it would be $1,800 for a remanufactured trans or $2,200 for a new one.

Does anyone have any solutions that won't kill my wallet?

@03_Loof That seems normal unless you go to wreckers!

A shop in our area rebuilds them for over 2000...
So it's a fair cost

If you don't mind DIY and used, you can find them as low as 450$ with about 75k miles through some of the reputable parts houses.
yeah used trans aren't as much as used engine cause there are alot of them
Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market

Got my replacement FXT transmission for a good price by searching that site. Good luck.
