Sport Coats <$150
So I know I need to shop eBay, grailed, Poshmark, etc. What brands would I be able to find for under $150 that are worth the price?

Lots. Ralph Lauren, Hickey Freeman, Southwick, Brooks Brothers, anything marked Harris Tweed, even Lands End. It helps a lot if you can take measurements from a blazer that fits you well. Save some money for tailoring, so maybe look at around $100. Plenty of good options, even well below that price.
because of how clothing mills and manufacturers outsourced their goods you can also find a good deal off an unknown brand (lots of places used loro piana mills, same with m&s)
I don’t own a suit or blazer though so I can’t take measurements. But I’ll look for those others.
getting your measurements will help tremendously for your first bit of tailoring; this is a good vid for doing it on your own https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwBniB9amJY
