Re: new turntable - back into vinyl - help!

Since your into entry-level, I would stick with entry level mm. carts. at this time. "Oyster" as I recall, is very entry level, so that's the first thing you can upgrade, say Rega Ellis, the Grado's, Shure v-15, and my Favorite- the Clearaudio Aurum beta -S, all mm. Then when you really get serious, you can spend big bucks on mc's.
If you buy used LP's from The Salvation Army (I've bought very fine records from Goodwill for around $.95 apiece) your going to need a good record cleaning machine like VPI or Nitty-Gritty.
