Any of the starter models will do. Ludwig Accent is a good choice and an industry standard. Any brand name will have a bit more resale value. Remember, you get what you pay for.

well the accent is the kit in my jazz band at school, a beginner kit that has alot of potential, and sounds incredible in the right situation
then if your you want more wood for your money, taye(tie) uses a birch basswood combo in all of their beginner-intermediate kits, and they are remarkable kits
i started with a kit called orbitone. it is produced by taye like squier is fender. The shells are excellents a mix of birch basswood and mahogony. they sound excellent but the hardware is not the best, but perfect for entry. The snare stand is one of my favorites though
what is the price you think they want?

Buying used will get you a much better quality kit at a better price than most beginner kits you can buy new at the store.

My friend has a Pulse drumset, its about $280 without cymbals, it sound pretty decent once you change the heads but the price makes it alot better
