Really? My turbo has about 20k miles on it. It has seen 28 to 34 psi it's entire life. Just like all these used factory tuned and aftermarket turbos. I would never install it on another car, or reinstall on my car next time it comes off without an oem distributor rebuild. Do the math and tell me what a used journal bearing turbo is worth???

That is completely irrelevant. And with normal care and the oil restrictor in place, a bb turbo shouldn't really wear out in any reasonable space of time.
Price a high quality rebuild with an OEM level balance, not all balancing is equal. A lot of places don't have the capability to spin it up to true operating speeds.
Btw, the s280 also lives a harder life than most. It's still operating at less than ideal emap:imap.
