I wanted a replacement as well. Went looking a short time ago. Ended up with a Leopold. Went right back to the Deck and proceeded to start stock piling them. After this, nothing can satisfy me. You either love this or hate t. It is built for durability above all else. I made some pretty step modifications to the one I use. To me the flat cap profile is superior. Most people prefer a sculpted profile. Anyone that has used this knows it is not like a Laptop keyboard. The flat profile with my incredibly heavy keys simply cannot be replaced. I do want something new but I have yet to find anything this solid. To me the solidity makes a huge difference in the typing experience. I feel the key-caps are superior and so do thousands of cops. Instead of a thick double shot or thick pbt it is a super thick pbt on the part you actually touch. Then reverse dyesubbed with a process that gets the ink into the plastic much further than tradional dyesub. Then they thermally bond an abs "skirt" to the cap top for cosmetics and to channel the light. This is not an actual double shot cap per se but to me and many others it is simply superior. With 1/4" thick pbt on the part you actually touch it is almost guaranteed not to get shiny and retain the texture. Many hate the light bleed and such. Then the board itself is the most solid design I have ever seen. The pcb does not even need to be screwed in place. The board is modular and completely serviceable. You can fix anything on this board with off the shelf resistors etc. you can also switch between ps/2 and usb. so the cable is detachable but you would have to build a cable if it was damaged and you do not have another. like myself, I think you should have yours repaired. I do not think the op will be satisfied with anything else after this. Or buy a used one. Thus far I have found nothing that satisfies me like this and you may find the same. I have model M,F Topre etc. none of them even come close in build quality. not even Koreans. To me this makes for the best typing experience, not simply for industrial use. You can also consider a Deck 82 or the TG3 equivalent. The other new Deck's are made in China and among the worst with the likes of Razer. This is subjective and ymmv. I just felt like adding this because I cannot be pulled away from it. I have been using these since they introduced hem and they have lived up to their name in my opinion. "The last keyboard you will ever need"
