I don't know about that, I have been quoted £60 to replace my toptube in 631 from Neil Orrell. Then you would have a columbus genius/631 frame rather than a Planet x CrMo jobbie...
I would guess though that when the down tube snaps like that it puts a fair bit of stress on the joints for the few seconds you are still weighting the bike.
