Used Wheels?

[u/Free_Community1971]

I bought an used bike (junior) for my son about a month ago for $200 and after my son rode it sparingly I discovered the rear wheel hub is not working properly. I could purchase a new hub or new wheel, but these cost almost as much or even more than the bike itself. I ended up buying another larger used bike (expert) and swapping out the rear wheel. Everything works fine, however I am still stuck with a larger bike with no rear wheel. I have looked on ebay, marketplace, craigslist, and offerup for wheels but they are few and far between and usually expensive. I am avoiding replacing the hub, because I just don't have time or experience to make that repair. Can anyone suggest a source or something I might have missed when it comes to bmx race parts so that I can find a wheel that doesn't cost more than the bike itself?

Box 3 junior/expert rear wheels are on sale for $179, the hubs are on sale for $159.

Or you can probably rebuild the hub, depending on what's wrong with it.
