How much would it cost to either rebuild the transmission, or put in a new transmission, on a 99 Saturn SL1?

It shifts roughly between 1st and second gear, and it slips in and out of third gear

So you have a hard shift between first and second?It also slip's in and out of third?When you say it slip's in and out of third doe's it shift to a lower gear?Or does it just freewheel?Also do you have any code's?If you don't know could you please go to a auto part's store and see what code's you have and let me know what the number's are.
