Replacing 5-speed transmission

The car is an 89 900T, manual transmission, located in Los Angeles. It has recent steering rack, clutch, clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder replacements.
The transmission died and my son (not a DIYer) had it towed to Walter Wong. Who suggested that we get one from Pick your Parts (having a sale this weekend, $80). I have never removed one before and it may need two people to man-handle it. Walter has a guy to help, $200. The guy will also show me how to put it together as it is being taken apart.
If I decided that I am not up to installing it, Walter can do it for $1000.
Does this scenario make sense? How tough a job is it? without a lift?
