LH ECU '89 900S

My mechanic tells me a bad ECU is the cause of my no-start problem. I need some advice on obtaining a new one.
Several places recommended that I replace with an ECU from an '88, which I'm told is fully compatible, but without the frequent failure rate of the '89 version. One site sponsor will sell me a used '88 for 295, or a remanufactured for 425, both with the same 30 day warranty. Another quoted me 195 for '88 remanufactured. My tech told me that was too low and I should be suspicious. He seems honest about the issue and would have no motivation to lie to me. Neither of these places mentioned anything about sending back the old one. A third site sponsor quoted me 375 for an exchange on '89 versions.
I would very much appreciate advice on the most prudent thing to do. Is a used one vs. remanufactured a cause for concern? Is the 195 really too good to be true?
Thank you,
'Roo
