Hi there, fellow Jersey guy here
Used fatties are going pretty cheap now, if you want one get it now before the Fall when everyone falls in love again with the big rubbers. I'd stay away from the Goose mainly due to weight. They are usually over 40 pounds which is tougher to slog through snow and trails. I've seen decent entry used bikes in the $500 range. Keep an eye on the various local classified sources (FB, Pinkbike and CL). What size are you? I'll report back if I see something nearby since we're likely not far from each other.
