2001 Boxster TIP Transmission replacement options

2001 Boxster TIP Transmission replacement options
Like some advice on my Boxster with 74K miles. I had my transmission fluid changed by independent shop and now in reverse, 1st and 2nd transmission slips and slams. I'm looking at following transmission options and would like advice on what option is lowest cost and best long term reliable fix:

option 1 - transmission overhaul
Heard a lot from transmission shops where they pretty much "guarantee" to fix the existing for $2400-$4000 and won't need to go buy a used one from a junk yard. Is this an option you would ever recommend?

option 2 - reconditioned transmission
Different companies offering completely reconditioned transmission shipped to shop to be installed

option 3 - junk yard used
