How much for a used 9 bolt?

A local junkyard has a wrecked '87 GTA. The rear is a 9 bolt posi with a gear ration of 3.27. They want $150 if I pull it myself, or $250 for them to pull it. It sounds like a great deal to me, but I'm new at this stuff and don't want to waste my money.

Also, it has disc brakes. My current setup is a 2.73 with drums

Where you are located and want a 9-bolt that may be a good price even at $250. I would venture a guess not to many 3rd gen cars in your area.

Good deal. I am betting it won't take rocket science to take apart and pull myself. From the looks of it I just need to undo the suspension and drive shaft.

Yeah, not too much of anything around here. I already pulled the L98 out of the same car. Figured I wouldn't come across a complete running 350 TPI for $650 again. It's a good thing the junkyard computers were down; the guy at the counter had no clue what to charge.
