I'm getting a bike for a 10 year old kid to ride to school on. Doesn't need to be fancy, just durable. Would prefer for it to be from Amazon or a major retailer like Performance Bike. Up to $300 is fine.
Currently looking at something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Mongoose-Legion-Wheel-Freestyle-Bike/dp/B01LW1D4Q6/
I would look through things like Craigslist/OfferUp in your area. If you can't find anything good there then you might have to buy a Mongoose with that budget.
Just know that the Mongoose you listed is unsuitable for freestyle. It is for riding around the neighborhood. Anything with 1 piece cranks is not a fully featured freestyle bike.
A Mongoose Legion series would be better. L40, L60, and L80 would be good options. They go for 175-225 on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Mongoose-Legion-Freestyle-20-Inch-Wheels/dp/B01LW1D4Q6/ref=sr_1_4?keywords=mongoose%2Blegion&qid=1559327460&s=gateway&sr=8-4&th=1
