Best mail order bike to part out?

So I was looking at getting a partial groupset to build up a frame, and was looking at prices of mail order bikes to part out (as Ill need to get a wheelset, saddle, bars anyhow)

Does anyone have a recommendation on the best to part out, then sell the frame?

I was looking at the Neuvation Rival

I understand the brake calipers and wheelsets arent much to be desired (man, I want some Soul 4.0s...) Or is piecemeal off Ebay going to be cheaper in the long haul?
