Turbos -- when they go bad

How expensive is it to replace a turbo, how long does it usually take, and any place anyone recommends to buy them? Should I use a junkyard? Can you get them refurbished? I'm not a person who can do anything myself. My turbo blew (blue smoke) and I want to get the car fixed to a state that I can sell it rather than tow it somewhere and try to get a trade. I live in NE PA. The 2000 has new everything in it and is in excellent condition with 125,000 miles, but the blue smoke and a lack of umpf is a tell-tale sign something is wrong so I can't sell it. ABS needs to be redone again, but it has a lifetime warranty from BB Ramen in Massachusetts. They are great.
