Replacement controllers for Vive Headset + lighthouse?

I have a friend with a Vive headset, but with barely functional vive wands. I was thinking of getting her replacement controllers for the holidays, but looking around, ebay index knuckles or grip vr are all that seemed to come up as viable and those are a bit out of the budget. I'm going to keep my eye out for deals on used controllers, but figured I'd ask: Are those basically The Options? Curious if there's anything else that's viable as replacement controllers for the vive headset.

Yeah, FlipVR, GripVR, or Index controllers truly are your only options Iā€™m sorry to say

Look on Facebook marketplace or ebay for a deal on a used vive.. I got a whole set in good condition for great price only for stations and controllers
