Sorry, i didn't check which country you live in when i suggested the Ferplast.

I'd take Luna's good advice and use a cardboard box like a shoe box for a house. Just cut the base out so it sits on the substrate and cut a big enough entrance out.
You can also turn an empty cereal box on its side and you have the same cave as the Knuff.
A strong packaging cardboard box could act as a platform.

Hamsters are fine with cardboard and it doesn't cost anything to replace should your hamster chew it.
My hamster doesn't like plastic either.

I think we all waste money at some point by buying the wrong thing and yes, it is annoying.
