Thanks for that.

I don't have a Walmart In my locality, but there Is an equivalent.

Just a warning from experience at home/with the cheaper tables we sell at work like the Crosley Cruisers that you can find in most big-box stores (which is what I'm assuming you'd be able to find if you have a wal-mart equivalent or got something from the online wal-mart store) that if you want a turntable that's going to not wear your records quick, is operating at the right speed, is reliable, and sounds nice on a set of speakers then the Crosley/Victrola/Jensen options like what are sold at a Wal-Mart/Target/Aldi/whatever aren't very good.

They're cheap to buy, and there's good reason - they use very cheap,- just barely sapphire-tipped - styli on a 50s-style cartridge and tonearm, and are known to either track a bit too hard and sound fine until the record wears out and you have to put coins on top, track too light and require pennies on top which in turn makes them track too hard, and sound bad compared to a table which cost $40 more.
