imho, you qould be getting a good deal either way. I personally have a little experience with transimissions, and a rebuild on just about any is a straightforward process. also, even if the tranny is completely gone, you would cut the labor by doing it yourself as a trained mechanic. VW's are good cars in general, and in the case that the rest of the car is in a rather working and usable condition, i wouldnt be afraid of turning a few wrenches to get the car goin on all gears again. just my .02, others may feel differently. (But my opinion matters!) lol
