playing the violin isn't easy. It takes a lot of dedication and a lot of work, and if you don't like your teacher, lessons can be tough, too. But I've been playing for 6 years and it's the most rewarding thing I've ever done! Trumpets are great, too, but I will always like violin the best.

NOT ebay, lol...unless u live nearby the person who sells it and can listen to it before u buy it, definately not. half the time the really cheap ones that say they are set up and ready to play, ARENT and it costs more to fix them and adjust and make them playable, and even then it probably isnt worth it. look in the newspaper or on the net for some strings shops near u, the best way is to have a look whats around, decide how much you want to spend, and ask someone who works at the shop what they would recommend at the price you want. usually you can get decent violins with a bow and case for a few hundred dollars..you probly wouldnt want to spend much more on your first instrument, as cheaper instruments generally dont increase in value as there are always newer ones being brought out that are just as good. when looking at violins, have a go and get someone to play it for you so you can decide if you like the tone or not-if u dont like it, u arent goin to want to play it, and without practise you wont progress...happy searching!!

unless you have no other option, I would not sugest any chain stores. H&H places like that. Most of there instruments are mass produced and are of really poor quality, unless your willing to pay alot. To your second question most basic violin outfits cost around $175.

My beginner friend bought a violin called Josef lazar violin outfit from anice violin site that he came across. The link for that is http://www.violinwizard.com/violin_buying.html . He also tried anothet one called strunal and it was a more superior violin but around 100$ more. His teacher told him that violin is worth at least 300$.
If you can spend around 500$ or more it would be good to visit some retailers/shops and try couple of them before you buy.
best of luck!

Otto Kleir factory in Germany
Great violins, mine cost Euro 300 but they have everything above and below that.
THey are quite nice to play on.
I really don't know about renting a violin-if you can get a good (german?) one why rent
Like, you would rent bassoon or trombone
I only rented because I needed the smaller sizes (I would have had to buy four violins
