Been collecting records for years but never owned a turntable (lol)

Wondering if it's a better bet to buy a brand new turntable, or a vintage turntable? I like the idea of buying a vintage made in Japan turntable but not sure if there is actually a difference in terms of technology.

Also, I am interested in ripping some records I have, can any turntable do this? I have a focusrite audio interface already.

Recommendations appreciated. My headphones are AKG K7XX but likely I would be using the turntable with my inexpensive powered Edifer bookshelf speakers.

Fluance offers great value for the money, using higher quality cartridges at their price points than most.
