Turntable getting back to vinyl

Perhaps run a 'wanted ad' on Craig's list or other local media site.  Perhaps calling some of the local Pawn shops in the area for leads on used vintage tables dropped off by the grand kids.

All great replies. Let me caution you on "vintage" turntables which can often be relics from Grandpa's attic that have had no TLC for many years. I've been down that route and now I stay away. Good values in a TT that all satisfy you in your system would be the U-Turn (I own the tricked-out version) or a Rega 1. Sure, if you want reference quality sound then be prepared to spend a lot more. Then again, that applies to any element of all systems. Personally, I'd buy new and forget trying to find a diamond in the rough from Craigslist etc....

Buy a used Rega within your budget.

I recently decided to revive my Vinyl collection and didn't want to spend a bundle.  I purchased the Project Carbon Debut with the Ortofon 2M Red cartridge and I am loving it. I may upgrade in the future but for now I am totally satisfied. 

Also a table like the Carbon D will have decent resale value if you decide to upgrade. something always to keep in mind.
