I don't know if you're married to the round top boxes, but I've seen them come up on ebay sometimes, manufactured by someone out of Canada.
I got this one at JoAnnes.

It's solid cedar planking, and despite the fact that it is $89.95 normally, JoAnnes honors coupons from competitors, and I took a "50% off a single item" from Michaels and asked if I could use it and they said yes. So mine only cost $45+tax.
The iron hinges, rings and the hasp it didn't come with, but it wasn't a lot of work to add my own. Though not a structurally strong wood, it is impervious to most insects and rot. A good solution for what to keep your clothes in.
