That's what I'd do as well. I bought a few used ones, the cheapest was $35, one was $45 with a case.

Edit: Btw, I've dropped my 350s quite a few times, and usually on hard concrete walkways from at least 3'. It was at least in the Sony official cover though which gave it some protection, but each time I held my breath thinking "now I've really done it this time" while I turned it on to see if it still worked... and it still worked perfectly after the drops.

Since you drop yours also, you can't beat the price on a used one. Just be sure to check with the seller if there are any scratches on the screen.
