reconditioning depends on where you go, the type of car, but however i had mine recon'd for $150, but that involves me bringing the radiator to the place. But here's one on ebay for $149.95 ex postage

get a new or recod unit off ebay. Fairly cheap.

Remember that cheap units often are very average in quality, but that saying I rather buy a new then reco my old one, price is very similar, so might as well get a new one. Check out the seller's feedback, last I saw they have 100%
