How to get the best bang for my buck

I'm looking for a full suspension bike that will be used for trail riding, and want the best bang for my buck. I'm not sure I like the fit of the Stumpjumper FSR XC, and was thinking about either a Iron Horse Hollowpoint or maybe even a Weyless 5.5? Any opinions on either of these two bikes, or maybe something else I could look at? I'm open to getting either a complete bike or frame only as I have recently upgraded my hardtail, and could transfer components.

The Hollowpoint on Supergo looks to be an amazing deal, and your local shop may be able to come close to that price if you prod them <whistles, looks around for ska todd>.

Thanks for the replies. Which supergo did you see the Weyless made up? Was it the 2003 version of the 5.5 i.e red & white or blue & white? Or was it a completely different bike? Was it still a single pivot? I'm in New Zealand so I can't visit the store myself.
