Ok, this sounds pretty off-topic to anything, but that's why Council of Cobra is for! The thing is that I decided to start a serious LP collection (currently have some Jethro Tull LP´s somewhere) but I realized I have no turntable! Maybe it's not that necessary, but I really want one to listen to some vinyls. The problem is that I don't have a clue on how much would one of these cost. I researched a little, but I got many different prices, and I don't know nothing about good brands or anything.
Does anyone of you know how much should a decent, maybe not the best, turntable cost?
Thanks in advance guys ;)

Look at that hipster.
What kind of turntable are you looking for? You can buy some nice used ones for about $100 USD. I have a United Audio that's probably worth $400 or so. My vinyl collection is very nice too. Remember...Everything sounds better on vinyl, so don't skrimp on the record player or the needle.

Thanks ket. My first priority though is mainly Jethro Tull, Yes, Led Zeppelin, King Crimson, that kind of stuff.
On the Beatles record, um, it's on eBay pretty cheap without envelope/sleeve (that's how you call it? And yea, without it pretty much loses it's value). But I'll look for it if my cousins have it. I'm pretty sure they got most Beatles records.

I definitely want the sleeve.

Heh, I would too. I don't know, maybe my cousins have it, if I'm lucky I'll tell you. And thanks about the price, $100 seems pretty reasonable, though maybe my sister has one that belonged to my dad that I can borrow.
