I think to try a turntable your budget should under $500 and all equipment should be used. It is a bit of a trick question depending on what vinyl you own. I would probably double the budget if I had a collection. I would still stay used.
You can get respectable equipment in this price range. Good enough to tell if the whole experience warrants more investment. If you are like most I'm sure you will end up spending much more. Keep it light and fun. Buy high quality vinyl. You get what you pay for if you buy from reputable places.
