I recently purchased a ball valve for my CO2 setup to replace a leaky valve. Lo and behold, this one has now developed a leak. Here's the leaky replacement:

Needless to say this is frustrating, but maybe I'm getting what I paid for. Before I toss this one and try yet another valve, are there any DIY fixes for something like this? When i put a bubble solution on it, the bubbles come out of the base of the blue handle. It also seems to leak from the upstream CO2 tank side because if I charge my keg and close this valve, the tank stays charged. But if I leave the CO2 tank valve open and close this valve, it will discharge the CO2 tank.
Finally, if there is no fix, can someone recommend a reliable CO2 ball valve?
