Best TT for the buck?

Hello everyone, This is my first post on the website as i have just become a member. I am fairly new to hifi audio and want to get a turntable. I want the audio quality to be very good, considering my price range that is and i am not opposed at all to going the used route and may even prefer it. My budget will be no more that 600 and trying to keep that to 500. All opinions are appreciated!
Thanks for any advice or help in advance. Ive already lost several hours on the website. its very addictive

I don't really live in an area where there are any hiding electronic places to go listen to TTs. I live in MS and almost no one in the area even knows what good music is. There is a denon DP-790 in the classifieds. Is this a decent table the stats look good even though it is a direct drive.

Rega RP-1, $445 brand new and all set up with an Ortofon cartridge, from Audio Advisor. Great entry level table, without any worries about the quality/reliability and/or shipping issues of a used table. Learn to love vinyl, then eventually upgrade the cartridge. Have fun, and enjoy our wonderful hobby ! Happy Listening.

Im really leaning toward that Denon DP-790. Do yall feel like that is a good idea? will i encounter any problems with it or will it sound bad? The guy wants 275 for it, cart and all. Is this a fair price?
