How did you test to know the battery was ok? I'd check my ground wires and positive wires from alternator to battery to starter.

it's also possibly the starter. Are you sure you didn't hear a clicking sound when you turned the key?

Get a new starter. A used one would just be a pita when it does break on you again. You can get at the starter from under the car. You've got 2 wires, the big wire running from you + terminal and another black wire that hooks up to the starter as a ground. All that's holding it in place are 2 bolts that bolt up from the transmission. Pretty easy once you're under the car. Good luck guys.
