I got one a couple years ago to build up for my chick before they had disc tabs, $49, looks like the same exact frame and paint still. You WILL need to get the BB and Head tube chased, trust me. And I also had to buy a tap and chase the derailluer hanger myself after I started stripping it out while trying to install the rear derailluer (completely painted in). Other than that, it'll get the job done, but it is a freakin sled! Kelly doesn't ride it much, so I can't attest to durability, that said I'm glad I only paid $50 for a bike that mostly sits in the garage. I also read on mtbr a while ago that people were breaking them, but I think that was a few kids building them up as 26" dirt jump bikes......
