Used Technics all the way in my opinion. I am really happy with my 2. You can pay anything from £400 - £3000 on a stock one. The latest GR & G are both getting decent reviews, an original MK3 is still a decent deck. Spares are readily available.
There's also a new Technics model around £700 with built in phono and cart included. With the DJ features stripped out.

Rega p1 still the budget turntable to have? Watched a YouTube guy in a singapore very effectively show that the p1 does way better job than the debut carbon (higher spec arm and cart, but bearings aren't as good, which is more of a problem than anything else?).
Or he also suggests a technics sl 1200, whatever the current version is (can't find them sold in uk anymore, or maybe just sold out) with one of two carts is the absolute budget weapon of choice for similar money (used technics vs new rega p1).
