i broke the box frame for my bed a few months ago and its been wrecking my neck trying to sleep on it. i put my mattress on the floor and have been sleeping like that for about a week, and my neck is still kind of stiff but not 100% when i wake up in the morning. i was thinking or trying to just buy a new boxframe instead of a mattress and boxframe but wasnt sure if the mattress was fucked because of how long it was sitting on a broken boxframe. its also only single sided, so i cant flip it. its probably 9 years old.. should i invest in a new bed? if so, anyone know a good bed? i was looking at tempropedics, they are lik 3k for queen size.. little much

Check out casper.com, and yes, if it's hurting your back or neck it's time to replace it.

Get a new bed. Check Big Lots: you can get a Queen for under $500.

Alternatively swap positions. Sleep in the side you normally rest your feet as it should be less used up

Don't do this, OP. Go to a store and get fitted for a bed by someone who knows what they're doing. Yes, it will be strange and take 20 minutes, but at least you'll get the right bed for you. These people shilling one bed for everyone are idiots.
9 years is the tail end for how long you should keep most mattresses. You can find a decent bed at $500 and a great bed at $1000. You can find a boxspring only for $80-$100 USD.

Buy a bed frame and slats from ikea. My mattress rocks without the box spring.
