You're not going to get anything good at that range, unless you get lucky at a secondhand store.

Save up $300 and get a AT LP-120 like everyone else.
>>
The At LP-120 is $500 in Canada fyi
>>
>>69086134
what is the difference between the AT LP-120 and the 60? I can see the 60 has a better price point but does it have any major drawbacks compared to the 120?

>>69086232
yeah, not looking to spend that much money for this.
>>
>>69086281
I've got a 60 for now, from when I first started, and a vintage one back in my home country. You cant adjust the tonearm on the 60 at all, so tracking weight is heavier than ideal. It's not a big deal but you should be looking to upgrade soon. My 60's speed also slight deviates but its fine for your first record player, it wont damage your records but look to upgrade. For 130-140, thats probably the only one you can find.

I know you probably know this, but Crosleys are some of the worst record players ever made. For your price range, just go for the LP 60

You absolutely do not want to go cheap on record players under any circumstances. Unless it has a diamond elliptical stylus and a fully adjustable tonearm/counterweight, it'll fuck up your records in ways you can't comprehend. I say this from experience. To be honest I've never used an LP-120 but it looks like a plasticky piece of garbage with a sub-par cartridge. If you want assured quality get a Rega or Pro-Ject, or you can save money by going vintage (the above rules apply even more).

Just pick whichever one looks the most "retro" at Ubran Outfitters. It will play you're mumford & sons vinyls just fine.

You haven't done any research, and are clearly interested for superficial reasons.

$140 will get you a nice looking toy.
