I really like the look of it but it doesn't seem to have a brand or anything. And when I look it up it shows the same one but with Crosley labels and I know a lot of people say Crosley's suck.

I just want to know if it's a good turntable / is it worth buying

$200?!? That's $180 more than it's worth.

For $35 more:

Is that one good?

I have the Pro-Ject Debue III. Great turntable. They regularly retail for about $300 (or $399 for the USB Debue III).

Keep in mind that you will need a pre-amp with this turntable as well. I bought a Pro-Ject one for about $50.

I also know nothing about pre-amps. What's the difference between a cheaper one and a more expensive one? Also what are some good ones?

Unless your turntable comes with one built in (and the Pro-Ject does not), you'll need a pre-amp. It amplifies the sound coming from your turntable before it goes through your receiver. Without it you'll have really low sound levels.

I use this one and have no complaints:
