What turntable to start out with ? Pioneer PLX-1000 or VPI Nomad


I was wondering if someone could help me out on getting a new turntable.  I read reviews on the Pioneer PLX-1000 but also think the VPI Nomad 2016 may be good.

The Pioneer may have a better resale value, but I would have to buy a separate cartridge.  The VPI Nomad seems cool because I could move it around in my apartment if I wanted to listen to music in a smaller NYC apartment which has a lot of activity going on.

Any ideas ?  $1000 is my limit.

Buy one of the following used; Well Tempered Record Player, AR ES1, Linn, orThorens TD 150. All of these are a much better value than what you are looking at a the cost will be less. so you can spend more on a cartridge or phono stage.
