Is my starter trash?

Got my starter rebuild kit today and took my factory starter apart and saw this. The commutator is missing one route of copper, and it looks like they're ear a serious sort that melted a bunch of copper and insulation

On, so I definitely need a new starter. My question now is this : do I buy an SBT for $110, a cheapo for $45, or a used oem one for like 60 and hope it's not as bad as mine and can be rebuilt?
 
You can flush your money down the toilet and it will be the same as the SBT and cheap aftermarket. Used OEM is the way to go.
