This is the approach I took with Disrupt.fm

I almost convinced myself to spend around $7-800 on a design from 99designs before I found an awesome admin theme on themeforest for $20

Just because you purchase a theme from themeforest does not mean that your site will look like 500 other sites that have the same theme. I bought an admin template so that I could use the styles....not the structure and layout.You should purchase a theme knowing that it's going to be customized to fit your needs, not to just drop it in and be done...plus, chances are most of the admin templates are used on the backend for a bunch of websites that the public won't see.
