Depending on who you buy from, grab something off of eBay. I only recommend this for BMX bikes since the parts involved aren't as complicated as those of road or Mountain bikes. If something goes wrong, you can fix it much more easily on a BMX bike than a mountain bike. Also fitting isn't as much of an issue as compared to other bikes. With that said...
My transaction went off eBay, but I saw the bike and the person I bought it from there first. He's made it a side business selling NOS BMX bikes, and when I got it I was in shock. Packaging was perfect, he had spacers to keep the forks from bending, side moldings mounted on the rear wheel nuts to keep the box from coming anywhere near the drive train, every single part was individually wrapped etc. Shipping was pretty quick too!
So yeah, I suggest going to eBay for some NOS, buy from a reputable guy. I bought my Mongoose Solution Pro from Twistedstyler1. He doesn't seem to have any bikes as of now, but he's always selling stuff, so contact him and see what he can get his hands on. Good luck!
