Touches show up occasionally on ebay, There is one there now (I see you
are in US) for $200, but the screen looks a bit scratched up. I have
bought touches, radios, booms on ebay, and often they are in pretty good
shape, maybe seldom used. I have kept watch for years, and from time to
time I have bought some players that I didn't need because they are in
such nice shape (or, say I didn't have a white radio) :) Sadly, I don't
have an extra touch for you. If you aren't in a hurry, keep an eye
open.

@AB has mentioned pi and polyvection route (both good options), curious
is the touch screen user interface important to you? Do you need any on
board user interface, or do you control with say a phone or pad? Do you
use the digital or analog output of the touch? The reason I ask is if
you don't need the UI, it gets much simpler.

One option that I have setup for friends (for casual listening**) that
has a UI, is to use the headphone jack output to RCA cable of a sb radio
into a amp/receiver. Radios are cheaper and more plentiful, and it's
actually quite nice because of the UI, button controls, presets, etc. My
non techie friends find them easy to use because its a screen and
buttons rather than menus.

** I say casually listening because the signal quality out of the
headphone jack might not be up to the RCA output. I don't know. It was
discussed in a thread a few years back. But for my friends with modest
equipment, and non critical listening, it sounds quite good.
