The matter raised by OP raises some interesting questions of a differing nature. Some have been touched upon and answered. My comments are:

A. I don't know whether Fatboy is a trademark owned by Backun. If so, advertising and buying such a product may incur a legal liability unless the Fatboy is produced and exported under licence. It may be, however, that the name "Fatboy" is out in the public domain.

B. OP seems to be engaged in the never-ending search for a better sound, whatever that may be. I see nothing wrong with that. Hakim Din may be able to provide the solution, but it would be like buying a ticket in a lottery. The descriptions offered aren't exactly detailed. Still, one reseller in Bulgaria (and presumably his customers) seems to be satisfied.

C. Judging by the frequent appearance of high-quality second-hand barrels on trading sites, much that is bought has been found to be unsatisfactory for one reason or another.

D. This suggests that a careful process involving access to genuine expertise may be a way to go about buying one. There are several barrels that I would not hesitate to buy because they come highly recommended, if only I could be reasonably sure of an improvement over what I already have.

Good luck with your search.
