Hi.
I purchased a whizbang 4-channel Philips scope for $2K two years ago off Ebay. It could do both analog and digital work; had more functions and math features than you could shake a stick at; and had 200MHz BW with up to 2GS/S under the right conditions. Just one tiny problem: there was only the scope, no manual or probes. The manual I got online, the probes... were only available from Europe, for $300 APIECE!! This suddenly wasn't the deal I thought I had. It took me a year and a half of careful searching on Ebay to get four functional probes for this (number five was kaput) at reasonable prices. So much for Ebay.
Last year I purchased a Tektronix 4-channel scope, 200 MHz BW, 2.5GS/S etc. My main attraction was the color LCD and it's USB port for downloading screens and data to the PC, which the Philips couldn't do. That was $2200 at Fry's, but EVERYTHING was there in the box. I only get to spend like this because I sold a house two years ago. I can afford to be a LITTLE stupid, but regular people have to pay rent and feed the family.
Just last month I got an email for this OWON scope:

It's digital only, 25MHz BW, 100 MS/S (adequate for the bandwidth), has two channels, a color LCD and a USB port. For $370 you get everything you need in the box.
An impressive feature is digital phosphorescence. This is present on both expensive scopes mentioned earlier. Basically, it shows multiple traces, the old ones and the latest ones. The old ones get dimmer over time, while the latest are shown full brightness. You can set the delay in the "dimming" effect. This is a very handy feature for tracking irregularities in an otherwise stable signal.
The special touch is: this unit is capable of portable use, and they include the optional battery in this sale.
However, on the down side, the manual stinks and there is precious little said about the capabilities or usage of the USB port.
I myself as a bench technician wouldn't/couldn't use this, but I can recommend it for the serious hobbyist or student. I gives you some of the same math features and the color LCD screen (and more storage?!!) then the pricey bench-only Tektronix mentioned before.
I think you should check this special and start saving your latte money.
