If the kid is good enough to need a CC, then he is good enough to make the switch any time he wants. If the CC will cause him all sorts of problems (and it CAN happen), then it may drive him out of music altogether.

And for the budget presented, a BBb tuba will be in better condition and a better horn to begin with.

Finally, any time the young player either wants to switch to a differently pitched instrument or to different sort of instrument, he can sell this horn and do so. Both these horns will maintain their value (long as the kid takes good care of it).
