Default coilover sleeves and blown shocks

just bought a eg civic hatch. already been lowered. ive done coilover sleeves before on other cars but only for a few weeks and switched out to springs.
im guess the hatch has been lowered on these ebays for a while, the shocks are done. i hit a bump and i bounce and bounce for what it feels like i never stop unless i stop the car, and with every bounce it screaches, loud!. i cant ride like this im getting a full coilover setup.

my question is. is it really worth the 600+? from people that ran sleeves and stock shocks to full coilovers. is it worth it?
do full coilover bounce bad? when you hit a bump and its like your falling into a sink hole?
also adjustable dampers and non adjustable. theres a good price difference.
i dont race. this is my daily, i want to stay low.
is it worth it?
