Where to buy an active telephone headset/handset switch in the US for <50?

I’m looking for a telephone headset/handset switch that has both a 2.5mm female jack and a 4P4C female jack that plugs into a single 4P4C (RJ9) handset jack of a corded telephone, for less than $60. A 2 hour search of the internet shows a couple similar devices for sale in Canada, the UK, Australia, and German, for like $30-$40. I’ve found a couple passive switches, but they all state that they are only compatible with X headset, or require your phone to have a separate headset jack. Most of the ones I’m seeing out of the country for the same price are active switches, containing an the hardware to convert and amplify the electrical signals passed to and from a 2.5mm headset.

have not seen exactly what you are looking for, but i am aware of this http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2104040

you could use one of these to change the size from 1/8 to 3/32 http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062457

then use one of these (or similar, since i could not find a cheaper mono, non gold plated one) to convert it into female if you still need to http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2102674
