Sweet, I wonder if my Indian friends can get me one next time they visit......hmmmmm
Avoid those Eastmans at all costs. They are built terribly and are not even worth $50.

Try to hunt around for a Chinese Forever or Flying Pigeon - these are marginally better then the Eastmans.

Alternately, you can probably get a very nice, used, Raleigh DL-1 (the real McCoy) for $100-$300, depends on the area and the seller.
