If you don't need the exact handles you could give one of these a go.

Those don't work on most Shimanos (including the above). I have one on my Psuedo-tuned C3 5501 swimbait reel. I tried to put it on my other reels and the hole in the handle is too bigs.

Look for a broken down parts reel on eBay. Otherwise, yeah that's all you can do.

They have other ones on Bass Pro too.

NONE of the BPS aftermarket handles fit Shimano reels, including the ones you linked, the longer power handles, or the Gator grip Hawg Handlers. As was mentioned, Shimano uses a different size crank shaft.

double check your prices, too. Pretty sure that I only paid $23 for my Calais handle last year.

Oh thanks for the info.
