Default $125 for a pickup. Which do you all think?

I'm putting a pickup in my Guild and I'm trying to cover all of my options. I'd like to keep the expense below $125. Used is fine, new is better. I'd really like a dual source as I have experience with a number of, mostly dual source, pickups:

Baggs Dual Source (element & mic)
Baggs Anthem
Baggs M80
Fishman Ellipse VT with PUTW quackbuster inline with UST.
Fishman Ellipse VT with JJB dual disk inline with ust

I enjoy all of the above systems, barely preferring the Baggs M80 and thinking of trying the quakbuster or other thin film sbt as the intriguing option of the movie ment.

Problem Is that these are all out of my budget at the moment. What I did find was a Dtar multi source (mic&ust) $125 new or a B-band X2.2 (dual source sbt & ust) $69 new for on China. Also found a Duncan SA6 used for $135.

Looked at the Schertler Magnetico but it's more $ and I'm not sure what to expect for on it.

Any ideas?

TIA
