Level IIA is alot cheaper than a Level IIIA, you should be able to find a II or IIA for around 100-150 bucks used on ebay.

Check local laws first. In Illinois owning a bullet proof (non LEO) is a crime. Many states are this way. Particularly after the LA bank robbery shootout. If you are a LEO I would never wear a used vest. These breakdown over time. You also do not know what the previous owner did in it or to it. Your department should know where to get discount as well. If you really feel the need to have one...check a military surpluss store. They may have one hidden.

As an officer, I'd suggest you contact the company of which provides such equipment versus obtaining one from Ebay.
Vests have a specific "shelf life" which shouldn't be exceeded!

This is a perfect example of "getting what you pay for".
The real question is why whould you want "cheap" body armor?
