I bought the last two I needed from Ebay with this seller:

I don't know how much shipping would be from Japan to you, but his price for it is FAR below what everyone else seems to ask for it.

Just for reference, you can plug a DBU into a Tamiya MF unit - you just need to make up the connector at the MF unit end (which is the tricky part). Making a cover that mimics the baffles of the Tamiya is also a bit of a black art, tho Phil Pflueger was getting pretty good at it before he passed away.
I'd still recommend getting the TBU, if you can get it for that kind of money.

I bought mine from Japan last month. Arrived last week but was caught by customs, so best to factor that into your pricing!

Wow, that is a good price, thank you. Bet they won't have them for long.
